A NEW FEATURE, TEXT TO 911 NOW AVAILABLE IN EDWARDS COUNTY

Edwards County authorities have launched Text to 911, a new emergency communication option. While officials still urge residents to call 911 during emergencies, texting is now available for situations where calling is unsafe or impossible.

 

Use texting only if voice calls are not feasible (e.g., danger, speech/hearing impairments) and always include your address/location when texting.

 

Edwards County 911 emphasizes that texting should not replace calling but serves as a critical alternative during high-risk scenarios.
