Common Questions
When will I receive phone calls?
You will receive phone calls when the Target Notification system is activated and your address is within the geographic area chosen to receive the notification message. The Target Notification system will only be activated for emergency purposes such as:
- Missing children
- Bank robberies
- Fires
- Other major events that may occur in your area
What is an Amber Alert?
An amber alert is an emergency message that notifies the public of a child abduction in the area. These important notifications keep the public alert to suspicious activity so that they can help law enforcement track suspected abductors. AMBER stands for America’s Missing: Broadcast Emergency Response.
