This education program was developed by 9-1-1 for Kids, the official emergency caller training program created by US 9-1-1 communication center officials; emergency medical, fire and law enforcement professionals who were charged with the task of developing educational tools to help reduce the high numbers of non-emergency calls made to 9-1-1. The program has proactively worked to decrease the incidence of accidental and prank calls since its inception.
