The Talbot County Emergency Management Agency sponsors the 9-1-1 for Kids program in County Schools for First Graders. The children learn about the importance of 9-1-1 and what to do in an emergency. A portion of the program shows the children what happens when they dial 9-1-1 through the use of a simulator.
The children receive mementoes of their experience as follows:
- 9-1-1 Coloring Book
Funded by Elks Lodge 1622
- Ruler, Stickers, Magnet, and Pencils, etc.
Funded by Maryland Emergency Number Systems Board
The program has been very well received by Talbot County's children and the community. This is a program that brings great pride to Talbot County Government.
