Jackson County Emergency Management announced that they are implementing a new system for emergency communication with the public on June 4, replacing the existing Jackson County Mobile App.
The new notification system, called CodeRED, is a “state-of-the-art emergency notification system designed to keep residents informed and safe during critical situations.”
“CodeRED allows citizens to receive timely alerts on emergencies, severe weather, road closures, missing persons, and other important public safety notifications,” Emergency Management said in a post on their Facebook page. “Residents can create and account and customize their alert preferences, choosing from various communication methods, including phone calls, text messages, emails, TTY and mobile app notifications.”
