A Call to Action

At various times, Westchester County will call on you, its residents, to help. Sometimes we do this, but asking you to send an “electronic post card” to other government officials about an important issue. At all times, we urge you to do your part to stop global warming and as part of this to “reduce, reuse, recyle.”

With the County Emergency Notification System (CENS), information can be sent by e-mail and/or text messaging to mobile phones or devices before, during, or after a major storm or other disaster. Residents can get immediate updates on what’s happening and find out what they should do or where they should go.
