REACH Alert Instant Mass Communication for Cities

KLC has partnered with Kentucky-based REACH Alert to promote an easily and affordably customizable product for your emergency communication needs. REACH Alert provides municipalities, utilities, and other organizations the ability to instantly communicate timely information in the easiest, most efficient way possible, including text, phone, email, or any combination of the three. The platform is based on years of experience developing communication systems.

KLC has negotiated a special rate as low as $1.00 per household in the first year, and special rates for larger cities.

REACH Alert can help you communicate emergency information affecting your entire resident or municipal customer base. You can also share something as limited as a lost pet in a specific neighborhood. Each time you use REACH Alert, you target the message and audience.
