Don't wait, prepare today!

In honor of National Preparedness Month, the City of Mission Viejo is encouraging residents to register for AlertOC, its mass-notification system.  This targeted notification system will alert you when there is an imminent threat to life safety with required actions including evacuation orders.

Simply register your cell phone for calls and texts, email addresses and TDD/TY devices at AlertOC.com.

Along with registering for AlertOC, please pack emergency and "go" kits to sustain you, your family members and pets for several days without food, water, electricity and other essential items after a disaster.

Check out these additional tips  to keep you and your family safe. Don't wait - prepare now!
