The Borough of Swedesboro is going to start utilizing Everbridge, which is a mass notification / Reverse 9-1-1.

Residents can sign up at http://www.gloucesteralert.com They go to the upper right side and click on Sign Up. When they pick their municipality they should choose Swedesboro. They will have the opportunity to enter their location (up to five). It is suggested that they put their home location, work place if in Gloucester County, kids school, parents house etc. This will enable them to receive alerts if the alerts are geo based.
