Introducing Community Connect: A New Program to Protect Our Residents and Businesses
The Dexter Area Fire Department (DAFD) is always striving to find new and innovative ways to serve the residents of the City of Dexter, Dexter Township, and Webster Township. We are excited to announce the launch of Community Connect, a free, secure, and easy-to-use platform designed to enhance our ability to protect your home and loved ones during emergencies.
What is Community Connect?
Community Connect is an online platform that allows residents to share critical information about their households with first responders. By providing details about your home, such as medical conditions, number of residents, pets, security features, or any other important information, you help us better prepare for emergencies at your address.
Why Participate?
By signing up for Community Connect, you can:
- Ensure Faster Response: First responders can access vital information about your home before they arrive, enabling quicker and more efficient assistance.
- Share Important Details: Let us know if there are elderly residents, children, pets, or special medical needs that may require extra attention during an emergency.
- Enhance Safety: Provide details about your property’s layout, access points, or any safety features that could assist us in managing emergencies, such as swimming pools, locked gates or hidden entrances.
How Does It Work?
- Sign Up for Free: Visit the Community Connect platform to create an account and enter information about your household.
- Provide Relevant Information: You’ll be able to add details such as your address, household members, pets, medical conditions, or any other special circumstances that first responders should be aware of.
- Keep Information Updated: You can log in at any time to update your information as your circumstances change.
Your Privacy Matters
Community Connect is designed to be secure and confidential. Your information will only be used by authorized emergency responders during an emergency incident. The goal is to ensure that in the event of an emergency, we have the necessary knowledge to help protect you and your property in the best way possible.
