Galloway Township uses CODE RED, a high speed communication system to notify residents of emergencies.
These emergency systems can be used to send critical communications such as a missing child, missing adult, evacuations, fires, weather conditions or even descriptions of criminals in the area.

If anyone knows of a reason why Mullica Township can not have a system to notify our residents of emergency situations, please write in those reasons.
Our school has a robo call system for notifications.  Our residents deserve a communication system that may save lives or quickly find a missing child.
