ALERTING 9-1-1 TO YOUR SPECIAL NEEDS

If you or your child has a special situation, medical condition or disability, you should alert the 9-1-1 Emergency Response System to that need now, before an emergency occurs. This will help to ensure that you will receive the appropriate emergency assistance in an event. To do this, you complete this form that identifies your needs and mail it to the address below. The information you submit will be put into the  9-1-1- system and remain there until your request that it be changed or removed or if your phone account is closed. Please update any changes to your information as they occur by completing another form. Please note: this service only works with wirelines (a phone that has a wire from a telephone pole to your home.) It is not available for cell or internet phones.
