AlertOC is Orange County’s official emergency alert system, designed to reach residents quickly when important information needs to be shared. During events that may affect community safety, public health or daily life, authorized officials use AlertOC to send messages by phone, email or text. The goal is to make sure people receive timely and reliable updates when they matter most.
Most traditional landline numbers are already included through the county’s 911 database, but many residents rely on mobile phones or internet-based phone services that are not part of that system. This is why registering is important. Emergencies do not always happen when you are at home, so adding your cell number helps ensure you receive alerts wherever you are. Contact information is kept secure and is never shared or used for anything other than official notifications.
The service does not replace other emergency communication methods, but it adds an essential layer of protection by delivering information directly to you. If a call is missed, the system will try again or leave a message, which helps ensure important updates get through.
Signing up is simple. Visit the AlertOC website and enter your contact details. If you have questions, call 714-628-7054 یا ایمیل alertoc@ocsheriff.gov.

Enroll in Laguna Woods Village Everbridge Alerts
Laguna Woods Village uses its own Everbridge system to send Village-specific updates to residents. This includes information about gate access, utility interruptions, facility closures, traffic impacts and other notices that apply only to our community. When Orange County issues a major emergency update through AlertOC, Village staff relay the same information through our Everbridge system so residents receive it quickly in a familiar format. We may also add instructions that apply specifically to Village properties.
Although the two systems use the same technology, they complement each other:
- AlertOC is the official countywide source for wildfire, flood, earthquake, evacuation and public safety updates.
- Laguna Woods Village Everbridge provides community-focused messages and passes along county emergency information.
Enrolling in both systems gives you the broadest protection. AlertOC ensures you receive county-level information directly from public safety officials. The Village Everbridge system adds timely local updates and practical details that help residents understand what an emergency means inside the gates.
Together, they offer an important layer of reassurance for you and your household.
