Give information NOW about your family & home to better inform 9-1-1 call takers so they can notify police, fire and medical responders about you and your home faster.
How does the system work?
It’s easy! Residents sign up at www.911.org to create their own emergency profile that lists information about their home and their loved ones.
If a resident has to call 9-1-1, their emergency profile is automatically sent to the 9-1-1 call center that serves the area from which the call was made.
Your emergency profile is only available to the 9-1-1 agencies within the jurisdictions who we serve. http://whoweare.com
