The Communications Admin section of NATS allows you to send news items, such as updates, to all of your affiliates or messages to specific affiliates. NATS will also automatically send the program owner notifications about any issues that may arise.

The Communications Admin is comprised of three sections: Notifications, Messages, and News Items.&#x20;

## Notifications

The Notifications section of NATS contains all sent and received notifications from the NATS system as well as to affiliates.&#x20;
