Kentucky H.B. 643 Would Allow Districts to Implement Wearable Panic Alert Systems in Schools
House Bill 643, also known as Alyssa’s Law, would allow Kentucky school districts to implement a wearable panic alert system at each school facility that shall: “Connect emergency service technologies to ensure real-time coordination among multiple emergency responder agencies; Integrate with public safety answering point infrastructure to transmit 911 calls and mobile activations; and Be capable of initiating a campuswide lockdown notification.”
Meade County Schools was the first to issue CrisisAlert™ wearable panic badges to staff in 2024. Since then, nearly 20 other districts have followed. Learn more about the bill and its potential impact in this video.
