When seconds matter, systems matter. Treating 9-1-1 as critical statewide infrastructure ensures faster, safer, and more reliable emergency response for every Georgian.
A robust and modern 9-1-1 emergency response system is foundational public safety infrastructure. It is not simply a call center, it is the front door to the entire emergency response system.
Without a stable, statewide funding approach, some communities can modernize while others will fall behind creating unequal access to emergency services depending on where someone lives.
Modern 9-1-1 improves coordination between dispatchers, law enforcement, fire, EMS, and emergency management especially during major incidents and disasters.
A statewide funding model brings consistency and predictability so every community has access to modern 9-1-1 capabilities, not just those with the strongest local revenue base.
