Send reminders, cancellations, schedule changes, registration notices, and operational messages to connected program audiences.
Programs + Communications
BaseOps connects family communication to the programs, offerings, sessions, participants, and household relationships your staff already manages — so updates can move without rebuilding audiences or leaving the operational workflow.

Connected communication
Programs Communications provides the foundation for broadcasts, family notifications, activity updates, and other messages that begin with the operational work already happening inside BaseOps.
Send reminders, cancellations, schedule changes, registration notices, and operational messages to connected program audiences.
Share family-visible activity for an individual participant and notify eligible subscribers when a text notification is appropriate.
Post an update once and communicate with eligible families connected to the session without rebuilding a recipient list.
Let families manage supported program notification categories while Communications handles verification, consent, and delivery eligibility.
From operations to communication
Instead of treating every message as a separate task, BaseOps can carry the program context into the communication workflow and determine the appropriate audience and supported delivery channel.

Communication in Today’s Flow
Program communication is most useful when it happens close to the work that caused it. Staff can move from sessions, participants, and daily activity into family communication while the operational context is still clear.
Explore Today’s FlowBefore the session
Share schedule information, preparation details, pickup reminders, and other useful program communication before activity begins.
During the day
Post a family-visible update for an individual participant while keeping the full activity connected to the Family Portal.
Session activity
Share a session-wide update and notify eligible families without creating a separate recipient list.
Family experience
Text and email can bring attention to an update while the Family Portal remains the connected destination for program activity and next steps.
One communication foundation
Programs Communications provides one foundation for the different ways staff and families communicate around program operations. The business action stays with Programs; Communications manages the delivery layer around it.
Broadcast gives staff a deliberate way to send operational messages to families connected to a program or offering. The audience begins with the program relationships BaseOps already maintains instead of a manually rebuilt contact list.
Communications extends that workflow by connecting supported channels, subscriber preferences, and delivery eligibility to the audience before messages move.
Common workflows
Text messaging is a delivery channel inside Communications, not a separate list of phone numbers. Families can subscribe to supported program notification categories, verify their number, and control the updates they want to receive.
When staff chooses to notify families from a supported program workflow, BaseOps can use those preferences and the existing family relationship to determine which recipients are eligible before a text is queued.
Common workflows
Communications provides a common foundation for the channels BaseOps uses to keep people informed. Email and SMS can serve different operational needs while remaining connected to the same program context.
That gives BaseOps room to expand communication without requiring every Programs feature to create its own subscriber, audience, and delivery system.
Common workflows
Having a phone number on a family record does not automatically mean that person should receive every text. Programs Communications keeps contact information, family relationships, subscriber verification, and notification preferences as connected but distinct responsibilities.
Families can choose supported notification categories while BaseOps uses the authenticated family relationship to keep private program communication tied to the right household.
Common workflows
One connected program
Registration, sessions, attendance, participant activity, family relationships, and payments can provide the context for communication without becoming separate messaging systems.
Explore the Programs platformRegistration status and next steps can provide context for reminders and family communication.
Daily program operations can provide the context for timely family updates and connected notifications.
Families have a secure destination for program activity, household information, and supported notification preferences.
Payment status and required next steps can remain connected to the registration and family workflow that created them.
