Los Alamos, New Mexico— Los Alamos County Emergency Management will conduct a test of the County’s emergency notification system, Everbridge, on Friday, April 24, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. This test is part of our ongoing efforts to ensure the reliability and effectiveness of our emergency communication tools and to familiarize the public with how alerts are delivered.
During the test, community members who are registered with Everbridge may receive a test notification via text message, email, and/or phone call, depending on their selected alert preferences. The message will be clearly labeled as a test and will not require any action.
This exercise supports our broader preparedness goals by verifying system functionality, ensuring accurate contact data and user settings, increasing public awareness and confidence in emergency alerts, and identifying any areas for improvement.
We encourage residents who do not receive the test alert to confirm their registration and contact preferences within the Everbridge system. Sign up today by texting LOSALAMOS to 888777.
