Kentucky CSEPP designed an Emergency Contact Information form template to help you list and remember important phone numbers like police, fire, ambulance, and other emergency contacts. Print a copy of the form, complete the information, and keep it in an easy to find location.

Teach your children how and when to call for help. They should call 9-1-1 if you live in a 9-1-1 service area. If not, emergency numbers should be identified.
