Emergency help, non-emergency contacts and official alerts.
Start here
For an emergency, call 911. For routine questions, find the responsible police, sheriff, fire or emergency-management office through official sources. Stanly Alerts provides the county’s sign-up information for emergency notifications.
Make the first call useful
Have the address, the type of request and any existing reference number ready. Ask whether the office handles your location, what documents are needed, and where the current application or schedule is published. Avoid sending private documents until you have verified the receiving agency.
