Weber County What is Everbridge?
The Public safety agencies of Weber County are using Everbridge, a high-speed mass notification system to keep you safe in the event of an emergency. The system allows us to deliver emergency messages to you via phone call to your landline or mobile device and through text and email. You will know you have received an Everbridge alert when the number 89361 for a text and 801-399-8901 appears on your caller ID. If you missed any message details, you can always dial the toll-free number back, as many times as needed.
Did you know that it is free to sign up your cell phone for Everbridge?
It is also very important to do, because if your contact information is not in the database, or if you do not have a landline phone in your home, then you may not receive alerts if an emergency were in your area.
By registering your cell phone, the mapping program will geographically code your cell phone to the address of your residence, or work location. You will be able to tell the mapping system where you want your cell phone to be tied to and you can use more than one address (work, home).
