Neighborhood Emergency Notification System
Santa Cruz Consolidated Emergency Communications Center (9-1-1) has launched a new Emergency Notification system which can be used by center staff to send important messages to residents and businesses within Santa Cruz County. The system has the capability of sending thousands of messages in a very short time based on geographic location of the incident.
Examples of uses may be:
• Request for community assistance in locating missing children
• Evacuation notices due to emergency situations
• Be-on-the-lookout notices for dangerous criminals in your area
Santa Cruz Consolidated Emergency Communications Center (9-1-1) contracts with Avtex Solutions, utilizing their CityWatch Emergency Notification platform. Landline phone numbers have been uploaded into the system but cell phone numbers require individual registration.
Go to sccecc.org to sign up and have your cell phone included!
