Special Needs Assistance Program (911-SNAP)
911-SNAP is a program designed to assist the elderly community, special needs population, or any person that may have limitations that require additional or extraordinary efforts by emergency responders, or which hamper their ability to evacuate during an emergency.
How the Program Works...
"Special needs" information is entered into the E-911 database. When a call is placed from a residence, any information relevant to an occupant's special need(s) is displayed. The E-911 Operator will relay all "special needs" information to the emergency responders. The information is confidential and only shared with emergency responders to
assess situations within the field and prepare for the prompt and efficient rescue, care, and treatment of persons involved or threatened by disasters or emergencies.
How to Join...
Participation in 911-SNAP is strictly voluntary.
Eligible citizens interested in submitting information to be used for 911-SNAP can call and speak with a representative at 337-439-0811 to discuss the program in greater detail. Persons designated as caretakers of another individual are encouraged to participate.
