Abbreviated Dialing Codes
Abbreviated dialing codes were established by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for
communities to use to provide access to special
services. The FCC intended the abbreviated dialing
codes to be easy-to-remember and universally
recognizable numbers that would enable a critical
connection between individuals and families in need
and the appropriate community-based organizations
and government agencies.
All abbreviated dialing codes may not be available in
your community.
