How can we help?

Emergency Alerts

The Town of Lancaster uses Genasys as our Emergency Notification System. 

This critical feature allows town officials to send you important alerts via phone calls, test messages or emails. Alerts could include information on road closures, criminal activities, severe weather warnings, and more.

To subscribe to the Genasys system for Lancaster, NH alerts, please visit the following link and register for email or text notifications.

Functional Needs Request Form

When a Community Emergency Response is necessary there are often residents that require added assistance. When this is necessary it is important for Emergency Responders to know who those people are. The linked Functional Needs Form is a tool for Lancaster’s First Responders to use in identifying those individuals and being prepared to respond to them.

If you or someone you know may have physical, mental or other special issues that require additional measures (equipment, attention, etc.) please fill out the functional needs form linked below and submit to either the Lancaster Fire Chief at 19 Mechanic Street, Lancaster NH or firechief@lancasternh.org. All information will be held in the strictest of confidence and used only when necessary.

Volunteer Registration for Disaster and Emergency Response

Public Safety or Health emergencies often require assistance from trained individuals. The Lancaster Volunteer Registration Form (link below) provides the Town of Lancaster’s Emergency Response Team with information to identify those individuals who have special abilities or resources to mitigate any issue. If you are willing to assist in the case of an emergency, please complete the form and submit it to the Lancaster EMD at 25 Main Street, Lancaster NH or townmanager@lancasternh.org.
