    Description

    WNY Incident Alerts is seeking interested individuals who want to monitor emergency traffic via our proprietary apps and report them to our subscribers and to social media.

    We provide incident information for free to our subscribers via our free apps, but need volunteers to be able to report on them.

    By listening to the emergency traffic, you will be able to post specific incidents and alert the general public.

    No experience is necessary.

    The ability to add an app to your iPhone or Android device, with solid cellular or wi-fi access is the only thing you need.

    We will ask each applicant to take a very brief assessment that is NOT a pass/fail.

    No time commitment is required other than reporting on 3 or more incidents per week.
