Community Services
Morgan County EMCD 911 believes that community involvement is an integral part of the public safety response network. Educating the public on what services are available, what their role is in an emergency, and what to expect should they call for emergency services is a vital part of this network. We offer several different types of programs to bring this information to the community. From programs in the schools to neighborhood meetings, Morgan County 911 is there when you need us—before and after the call.
