-ISAWS- Idaho State Alert and Warning System

Idaho State Alert and Warning System (ISAWS)

Enroll and receive real-time safety and security alerts electronically….virtually any time or anyplace.

What is ISAWS?

ISAWS provides subscribers who enroll the ability to receive notifications of non-life threatening significant events and public interest messages from various State and Jurisdictional authorities via cell phone text messages, email notifications, voice messages, and social media.

Why enroll in ISAWS?

This system allows the State and Jurisdictional agencies the ability to use a wide variety of methods to contact Idahoans with critical information such as wildland fires, pandemic information, local emergency requirement like boil orders for water.  Enrollment is simple and voluntary and Idahoans have their choice of how they would like to receive .

What if I have special needs?

The system has been developed to alert Idahoans with special needs and/or with English as a second language. Simply make note of your situation when you enroll. If you wish to provide contact information for a caregiver, space has been provided for you to do so. Enrollment in this valuable system is easy. Simply follow the sign-up link below to enter your preferences and begin receiving emergency notifications. Your information is secure and not shared with any other organization or group (with the exception of emergency preparedness and response service providers for emergency planning purposes). Be sure to include the address of your primary residence. This “geocodes” your entry and enables the system to use zip codes or highlight an area on a map to quickly alert all registered ISAWS users who reside in that zip code or highlighted area.
