• Medicaid eligible
• Uninsured
• American Indian or Alaska native

Gov. Andy Beshear announced a new program, “Moore Safe Nights,” that will distribute free weather alert radios to deaf and hard-of-hearing Kentuckians for emergency alerts. This is a multistate agency collaboration honoring the late deaf and hard-of-hearing advocate, Virginia Moore. The program has acquired 700 weather alert radios specifically adapted for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. The radios will be distributed on a first come, first served basis. We are not sure how quickly they will run out, so please submit your application as soon as possible.
