NOW LIVE: THE NATIONAL 911 RESOURCE CENTER

Does your agency have a question about 911 or need information on 911 technology?  You have a new resource – the National 911 Resource Center.

Created in partnership with 911.gov, the National 911 Resource Center develops, collects and disseminates information concerning practices, procedures and technology used in the implementation of 911 services. This will be accomplished by:

  1. Hosting an online clearinghouse, and
  2. Providing technical assistance and information upon request.

The National 911 Resource Center is not a consulting service, but will house an expanding collection of 911 information and your questions will be answered by 911 subject matter experts.

Submitting Information to the Clearinghouse
We encourage you to share your experience and expertise. You can submit anything that may be of use or interest to others:

  • Job descriptions
  • Standard Operating Procedures, policies, legislation, and regulation
  • Reports, plans, and guidelines
  • Requests for Proposals and Requests for Information

If you have materials you’d like to share, go to 911.gov and click on “911 Resource Center.” Then select “Submit New Content” from the column on the left. All submissions are reviewed by a Content Oversight Panel (COP) made up of representatives from public and private 911 agencies.

Accessing Information in the Clearinghouse
To search the clearinghouse, visit the 911 Resource Center and type your search topic or keyword(s) in the search box in the upper-right section of the page. Advanced search options are available by clicking the “Advanced” link.
