The City of Prescott, Town of Prescott Valley and the Prescott Regional Communications Center (PRCC) are proud to announce the launch of Prescott Regional Emergency Notifications, a new, consolidated emergency alert platform designed to enhance public safety and streamline communication during crises.
This modern system, powered by the Smart911 app powered by RAVE, serves not only the City of Prescott and the Town of Prescott Valley, but also includes emergency alerts for agencies dispatched through the Prescott Regional Communications Center. These agencies include the Prescott Police Department, Prescott Valley Police Department, Prescott Fire Department, Central Arizona Fire and Medical Authority (CAFMA), Copperstate Ambulance, Yavapai-Prescott Indian Tribe Police, and Yavapai College Police.
By utilizing the RAVE Smart911 app, this system delivers targeted, real-time alerts directly to residents based on their location. Whether it’s a severe weather warning, wildfire notification, evacuation order, or other urgent information, residents will now be connected to the most accurate and timely alerts available.
Key Features & Benefits of the Smart911 App:
- Location-Based Alerts: Agencies can send messages to residents in a specific area, improving the precision of emergency communications.
- National Weather Service Integration: The app displays weather alerts on an interactive map, providing advanced notice of hazardous conditions.
- Accessible from anywhere: Residents without home internet or a computer can sign up directly from a mobile phone.
- Multiple Communication Options: Users can receive alerts via text message, phone call, email, or app notification—whichever they prefer.
How to Sign Up:
Signing up is quick, easy, and free—just visit alerts.prescott-az.gov, prescottvalleyalerts.gov, or text “PREN” to 67283.
This new system ensures that residents throughout our region are better informed and better prepared for emergencies. The City of Prescott, Town of Prescott Valley, PRCC, and all participating agencies are committed to providing the highest level of service and safety to our shared communities.
Stay alert. Stay informed. Stay safe.

The Terms of Agreement are much to long for this not to have some hidden agenda in it by signing up. For this reason I am NOT going to sign up because it doesn’t feel or look right to me. I will stay with Prescott’s reverse 911 system.
I have a question to ask before I sign up. I am currently signed up to the Prescott Reverse 911 which is very similar to this. Should I also sign up to the Smart911 and delete my info in the Reverse911 website or enroll myself in both systems? I think this is a great idea if the personal information isn’t abused or if it doesn’t fall into the wrong hands.
Regarding J, I also have the same question. Should we delete our account on Prescott’s Revers911 website or leave it there along with the Smart911 signup?
