What are the Differences in the Services

The chart below compares the services available through The LAW-Los Al Watch and Alert OC. One way to consider the two systems is to remember that Alert OC is designed to be utilized under emergency circumstances in a time sensitive manner. The LAW-Los Al Watch is intended to enhance our communication efforts in non-emergency circumstances.

It is suggested that everyone sign-up through Alert OC for emergency notifications, and choose the most appropriate service for obtaining non-emergency information from The LAW-Los Al Watch.
