CodeRED is a FREE emergency notification service provided by the Cameron County Emergency Communication District. The CodeRED Emergency Notification System is capable of delivering critical alerts through phone calls, text messages, and email notifications during emergency situations; however, cell phones and email addresses must be registered to receive these alerts.

While notifications are automatically sent to registered home landlines, emergencies often occur when residents are away from home. By registering your mobile devices, Cameron County residents can receive emergency notifications from local authorities about hazardous materials incidents, missing persons, evacuations, dangerous persons, and shelter-in-place orders.
