E9-1-1 Institute

National 9-1-1 Education Month

The E9-1-1 Institute is once again teaming up with the Coalition for 9-1-1 Education to kick off National 9-1-1 Education Month by hosting a "9-1-1 Block Party" with the Office of Unified Communications of the District of Columbia.

In 2008, the United States Congress recognized April as National 9-1-1 Education Month, supporting the initiative of the Coalition for 9-1-1 Education, an alliance of 7 national organizations dedicated to advancing public safety communications who have joined together to advance 9-1-1 education. These organizations are:

the E9-1-1 Institute;
the National Emergency Number Association (NENA);
9-1-1 For Kids;
the National Association for State 9-1-1 Administrators (NASNA);
the Association of Public Safety Officials (APCO);
CTIA - The Wireless Association; and
9-1-1 Industry Alliance

The national kick-off event in Washington, DC will occur on April 9, 2010.

The 2nd Annual 9-1-1 Block Party sponsored by the Office of Unified Communications (OUC) at the Ferebee-Hope Community School in the District of Columbia Public Schools.
