With hurricane season approaching, Iberia Parish Government is encouraging all residents to register for Iberia PINS, the Parish Information Notification System.
This free service delivers real-time emergency alerts, weather warnings, and critical community updates via text, phone call, or email.
Iberia PINS is powered by Smart911 and allows users to customize the types of alerts they receive and how they receive them. Notifications may include severe weather warnings, evacuation notices, road closures, boil advisories, utility disruptions, and other time-sensitive issues that impact public safety.
Signing up is easy and takes less than a minute. Residents can register by visiting www.smart911.com. Once enrolled, users can manage their alert preferences and update their contact information as needed.
