Our Verizon Response Team is available 24/7 to provide on-demand, emergency assistance to first responders. We mobilize charging stations, WiFi hotspots, devices, special equipment, emergency vehicles and more to support local, state and federal agencies across the US. First responder customers with wireless priority service should utilize *272 when placing calls.

“2020 has been a year of unprecedented events, including the devastating wildfires burning across the Western US,” said Eric Reed, Verizon Consumer Group Vice President. “We hope this offer will give our customers one less thing to worry about so they can focus on more important things during this difficult time.”
