Emergency Information

This page has been established in order to help keep students, faculty, staff and their families informed in the event of a local disaster. In case of a disaster you may visit the LATTC web site for information which will be posted as soon as events allow. On this page you will find phone numbers to call and links to other emergency information and disaster related web sites. You may want to print out this page for future reference. It is our sincere wish you will never have to use this page for the purpose for which it was designed. For information during business hours, please call the office of the department with which the person you are trying to reach is associated.

 

If you are concerned about a student, faculty or staff member, please try to call directly before seeking information from the emergency information numbers.

 

In the event of an after hours emergency call the LATTC Campus Emergency Information number. From area codes 213, 310 and 323, dial 520-6292 . From all other area codes dial (323) 520-6292 or the campus Sheriff Station at 213-763-3600.

During emergency situations one of the best sources of information for continuing updates on any situation is commercial AM radio or local television stations.
