During Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) events, individuals with disabilities and older adults with access and functional needs are encouraged to reach out to local county government for assistance.  

As a secondary option, individuals can also reach out to specific local Independent Living Centers (ILCs) for assistance. 

If you rely on power to operate life-sustaining medical devices (CPAP, BiPAP, oxygen, communication device, power wheelchair, etc.), one of the ILCs listed in this web page may be able to assist you with costs associated with: 

• Accessible transportation  
• Short-term housing support during the PSPS 
• A loaner back-up battery system

Call the Disability Action Center Today to get signed up. Don't wait until the power goes off
