To better communicate various weather and installation emergency conditions, the AtHoc system allows service members/sponsors to register their dependents’ contact information to receive text message and phone call notifications.

Check out the attached graphic for instructions on registering your dependents for notifications.

Local Colorado Springs public safety agencies (police, sheriff, fire, and emergency services) use a system called Peak Alerts to directly notify the community of dangerous conditions and actions that people should take during an emergency.

Peak Alerts notifications are targeted geographically, so agencies can narrow the notification to just those who are affected by the emergency situation. Sign up for Peak Alerts at peakalerts.org.

50 SFS is joining El Paso County Sheriff’s Office in implementing the Blue Envelope program.

The program was created to enhance communication between law enforcement and individuals with disabilities that may affect face-to-face interactions, such as individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder, dementia or hearing impairments.

Participation in the Blue Envelope Program is entirely voluntary and is a resource for anyone who feels it might assist them or a family member in an interaction with law enforcement. The 50th SFS is making participation in this program more accessible by offering base personnel the opportunity to pick up a Blue Envelope from the base visitor’s center.
