Emergency Messages for U.S. Citizens
Emergency Messages issued by the Embassy are an integral part of keeping American citizens living in Paraguay informed. The Embassy often issues Emergency Messages about important safety and security information. “Wardens” are American citizens who have volunteered to help disseminate such messages to the American community. In this section you will find information that has been sent out to the American community in Paraguay. If you are interested in becoming a warden, please write to ParaguayACS@state.gov.
