The City of Simi Valley uses VC Alert, a high-speed emergency notification system to deliver critical messages via voicemail, email and texts about local emergencies and other important community news. VC Alert may be used to deliver alerts when there is a threat to the health or safety of residents. You may also sign up to receive community alerts.

How it works, first the emergency, then VC Alert is sent, then people take action

The VC Alert Emergency Notification System database currently includes all listed and unlisted landline telephone numbers that are serviced by AT&T in Simi Valley. The system can notify you of emergencies on your cellular phone, work phone, TTY device, email, fax, or via instant messaging. Register your contact information in the VC Alert Opt-in Portal (website)All information you provide will be kept strictly confidential.

Visit the VC Alert website for more information about this free program. You may also call the VC Alert Hotline at (888) 772-4482 or email vc.alert@ventura.org.

It is important for residents not to rely on VC Alert notifications as their only means of emergency information. The system may be used in conjunction with information provided to the media, directions given by emergency responders, and information posted on official city, county, and government websites.
