    Dial-A-Life
    The Dial-A-Life Program is a Miami-Dade County initiative dedicated to collecting used, disconnected digital cellular telephones and reprogramming them so that eligible, at-risk Miami-Dade County residents, such as  elderly, disabled, low-income,domestic violence victims and families with at-risk or disabled children, can call 9-1-1 for emergency assistance.

    Miami-Dade County Commissioner Joe A. Martinez, a former Miami-Dade Police Lieutenant, saw the need to develop a program to make a difference in the safety of Miami-Dade County resident’s lives.

    Want to help Miami-Dade County’s elderly, disabled, low-income,domestic violence victims and families with at-risk or disabled children Dial-A-Life? Donate your old cell phone. If you need a phone, Dial-A-Life staff are here to help.
