On a campus as busy as ours, most days feel routine. But if an emergency ever interrupts that routine, 91ÊÓÆµ wants to be ready to support every member of our community.

The 91ÊÓÆµ Emergency Evacuation Registry (PEER) is a voluntary, confidential program for NYC students, staff, and faculty who may need assistance during an evacuation. Whether you have a mobility limitation, a sensory or cognitive disability, or a temporary medical need like recovering from surgery, PEER helps Safety and Security respond quickly and thoughtfully.

If an evacuation is ordered in your building and you’re enrolled, you’ll receive a text or phone call asking you to confirm whether you’re inside and if you need assistance. From there, staff can coordinate support and, if necessary, share your location with first responders so help reaches you as quickly as possible.

You don’t need to share specific medical details—just the type of assistance you may require. Your information is stored securely, kept confidential, and accessed only during emergencies. And you can update or unenroll at any time.

It takes just a few minutes to register.

Visit the PEER website to learn more and sign up.
