About 911 Education Month
The 9-1-1: The Number to Know™ Campaign was developed by the National 9-1-1 Education Coalition for use by national organizations, state 9-1-1 entities, regional authorities and PSAPs during National 9-1-1 Education Month and National Public Safety Telecommunications Week, both in April. It is also designed to support the coordinated promotion of 9-1-1 education and awareness year-round.
The vision of the National 9-1-1 Education Coalition is to save lives and improve emergency response by creating a national 9-1-1 education and awareness effort to ensure the appropriate and responsible use of 9-1-1 resources and embraces contemporary communications opportunities.
The mission of the National 9-1-1 Education Coalition is to leverage the resources of public safety, educational, and industry stakeholders to create a national, coordinated campaign with a common message of public awareness on the appropriate and responsible use of 9-1-1 resources. The Coalition will encourage a nationwide effort to celebrate “National 9-1-1 Education Month” and “National Telecommunicators Week” as key events to promote education and awareness as well as provide support for ongoing access to the “best of the best” 9-1-1 education content and promotional ideas, and foster the advancement of 9-1-1 technology and services to meet the evolving needs of the public to access emergency help.
