Evaluation of First Responder Services Based on 911 Calls | Do community resources align with community needs based on the types of calls for service coming to 911 centers? This question will be answered through a new study and seven-city partnership to analyze 911 call data and develop recommendations for improving responses by law enforcement and other first responder agencies. To help understand and improve the responses to calls for service (CFS), the City of Durham invited RTI International, a non-profit research institute, to partner with cities in North and South Carolina to analyze their 911 CFS data and help develop recommendations for improving the response of law enforcement to these calls as well as other first responder agencies. Participating cities in this new study include Durham, Raleigh, Cary, Burlington, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and Rock Hill. | Please visit the project's website for associated materials.
