As part of the N.C. Department of Public Safety’s Division of Emergency Management, the 24-Hour Watch is housed in the State Emergency Operations Center in Raleigh. The Watch is an information and communication sharing hub for incident information and intelligence data from federal, state and local partners. The Watch shares information it receives with all necessary stakeholders via multiple communication platforms.
“The 24-Hour Watch aims to be the eyes and ears of North Carolina Emergency Management, with complete situational awareness of all goings-on across the state,” said Amanda Winans, 24-Hour Watch Manager and State TERT Coordinator. “All information that comes into the Watch is pushed out in some way or another; our goal is that information never stops with us.”
