Windham County Sheriff's Department

Alert Messaging System

Please note: This program is currently in a testing phase only and is not yet operational.
The Alert Messaging System (AMS) is a system, designed by Deputy Mark Anderson, that is specifically designed to communicate information to the public. The Windham County Sheriff's Department's dispatch center will send important information concerning major traffic accidents, AMBER Alerts, missing persons, road construction and other useful information. You can have the choice of being emailed, paged, or have a message sent to your cellular phone.

The only information you will need to provide is your First Name, Last Name, and the email address of the device you'd like to be contacted on. This information will be kept on the Sheriff's Department's datebase for the AMS system. All of your information is considered private and confidential.

Most devices, such as pagers and cell phones have an email address attached to it
(Ex. Unicel: 8025551234@utext.com; Rinkers: 8025551234@epage.rinkers.com). Before signing up, you might consider talking to your service provider to enquire about possible charges. However, many area providers allow this free of charge. There is absolutely no fee or payment required to the Sheriff's Department for this service. Also, you may be removed from the contact list at any time. If you would like to start recieving these messages, please click here.
