Here are some tips for contacting loved ones from Red Cross:

• Call during off-peak hours for the best chance of getting through.
• Send a text message, which may go through when phone calls cannot.
• Check your loved one’s social media pages (i.e., Facebook, Twitter, etc.), as they may have already gone online to tell their story.
• Send an email
• Call friends and relatives who may have already been in contact with your loved one.
• Call people and places where your loved one is well-known; neighbors, employer, school, place of worship, senior center, social club/center, union, or fraternal organization.
• Try sending a letter. Your loved one’s mail may be getting forwarded to his or her new location.
