If you are unable to call 911 or need to reach out quietly in an emergency situation, you can send a text instead?
Dispatch will receive any messages you send.
* Calling is always the fastest and most preferred method for contacting 911.
* Just like calling 911, texting 911 should only be utilized in an emergency situation.
* If possible, be sure to include the nature of the emergency, your location, and what type of assistance you need (Police, Fire, or EMS).
*Provide your full address.
* Don’t send photos, videos or emojis, and avoid abbreviations.
