Josephine County Emergency Management Needs Volunteers

📲 Jackson Alerts Info Posting some information here based on the most commonly asked questions so far! ❓Why can’t I use my email address or old username & password for Jackson Alerts? ➡️ The new username and password for Jackson Alerts cannot be the same as what you used for Citizen Alert. If the system doesn’t like your email address, you may have used it for your Citizen Alert account and will need to choose a new one. ❓My mom is elderly, does not have an email and signed up for Citizen Alert over the phone. Does she need to set up on online account? ➡️ No, since she does not have an email, she does not need to create an online account. Her name and contact information that was in Citizen Alert was moved into the Jackson Alerts system. Give call us at 541-774-6790 & we are more than happy to make sure mom’s contact information is still up to date.

📣𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙅𝙖𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙤𝙣 𝘼𝙡𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙨!📣 March 3rd, 2025 - Since 2015, Jackson and Josephine Counties have operated under a single shared Everbridge account that allowed utilization of the notification system known as Citizen Alert. As of this week, Jackson County will transition to its own Everbridge account and will be rebranding its notification system as Jackson Alerts. This transition will allow for enhanced security and control of alerting options, features, and alert senders within the system. Josephine County Emergency Management will continue to use Citizen Alert, and residents of Josephine County will not be impacted.
