ICYMI: You can now text 9-1-1
text 911
People in Kendall County can now text 911 in an emergency. KenCom, the agency that handles emergency dispatch in communities across Kendall County, recently announced that it has implemented a Text-to-911 feature.
In an emergency, you should still call 911 by phone if you are able. However, if you are in a situation in which it would be unsafe to call, or if you have a disability that makes calling difficult, you can now send a text for emergency services. If you use this service, include the details of the emergency, especially the location, in your initial text. Call when you can. Text when you can't. *Read more. [ [link removed] ]*
