E-911 Dispatch Center

Established in 2015, Lake County Emergency Communications was created to meet the requirements of Indiana State Law requiring consolidation of 9-1-1 Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs). A brand new, state of the art facility was constructed along with a modern radio system. The new infrastructure supports emergency responders with cutting edge technologies that span 17 communities, unincorporated townships, and 42 public safety agencies.

Please make note of the following numbers based on the assistance you need:

• 911 Can be used for both EMERGENCY and NON-EMERGENCY calls. ALL calls for service need to go through the dispatch center.

• 219-660-0001 is the NON-EMERGENCY number for the dispatch center if you are located outside of Lake County.

• 219-779-9326 is an ADMINISTRATIVE line and should NOT be used for requesting a police response. You may call this line for questions or concerns that DO NOT require an immediate response.
