<h2>Who is Notify.gov for?</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Government agencies at any level of government who deliver <b>federal programs</b> are able to use Notify.gov. Those
|
|
|
|
|
|
who sign up to new Notify.gov become our partners.
|
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
All <b>federal agencies</b> are invited to use Notify.gov to send text messages to their employees, other federal
|
|
|
|
|
|
agencies, or to the public.

Non-federal agencies (state, local, territorial, or tribal governments) who administer or deliver federally-funded
|
|
|
|
|
|
services
|
|
|
|
|
|
</b> may qualify to use Notify.gov. These programs must specify which federal program the messages they want to
|
2024-11-19 10:59:58 -08:00
|
|
|
|
send are related to. The Notify.gov team confirms our authority to work with these programs as part of our

|
agreements process.

<h3>What partners receive</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use Notify.gov to send messages (outside of our Trial Mode), partners sign a one-year Memorandum of Understanding
|
|
|
|
|
|
with us. This is a basic agreement outlining our relationship and responsibilities.
