Mercer County Community College's emergency messaging service, M-Alert, enables MCCC administrative and security professionals to reach all students, faculty, and staff members with time-sensitive messages via voice recording, e-mail, and text messaging. During unforeseen events, critical situations, or emergencies, the college may employ the system to broadcast pertinent information and provide details on appropriate response.

M-Alert will help MCCC provide a safer environment, enhance emergency preparedness, and keep its students and staff better informed.
