Alert Lethbridge

Alert Lethbridge exists to make our city safer, more connected, and more responsive. We give residents one place to share alerts, ask for help, find housing and care resources, and coordinate neighbour-to-neighbour response — instantly, and without gatekeepers.

Demand validated itself before we ran a single ad. The network is growing through word-of-mouth from the people who need it most.

• SOS alerts — one-tap community-wide safety broadcasts with neighbourhood targeting.
• Care network — verified volunteers, wellness check-ins, and a mutual-aid request board.
• YQL AI assistant — local-context chatbot that answers questions about resources, events, and services.
• Housing help — vetted listings, shelter status, and pathways for residents in crisis.
• Emergency rides — request and dispatch flow for urgent transport from approved drivers.

Lethbridge is a city of 100,000+ residents with real public-safety, housing, and outreach challenges — and almost no purpose-built civic technology serving it. National platforms optimize for metros; we are built for here. Civic tech for small-and-mid-sized Canadian cities is a structurally underserved category.

• Partnerships with shelters, outreach orgs, and local nonprofits for funded program delivery.
• Premium directory listings for contractors, landlords, and service providers.
• City & municipal contracts for alerting, cold-weather response, and resident-facing communications.
