Get notified early during emergencies with REGROUP.

We’re here to alert you all about Hamilton County Office of Emergency Management’s newest platform for sharing news to residents.

Enter: REGROUP, an alert system that will be used to notify the public on various emergencies. Those who sign up will receive mass announcements like active shooter calls, hazmat hazards, missing persons, flooded + closed streets, and shelter-in-place advisements.

REGROUP will send the alert based on the individual’s preference setting — via text, email, or automated calls. The platform is free + open for all to use. Sign up online.

“We are excited to add REGROUP as the latest emergency notification tool to our emergency preparedness infrastructure,” said HCOEM Director Chris Adams. “This emergency alert system will improve Hamilton County’s ability to disseminate critical information and ensure the safety and well-being of our residents.”
