So that our members can reach this toll-free number from outside the United States, DAN has made arrangements with AT&T's USADirect service. To use this service:

* Look up the USADirect access code for the country (and region, in some cases) that you are calling from.
* Dial that access code into the phone you are calling from.
* An English-language voice prompt or an AT&T operator will ask you for the number you are calling; enter or say the DAN number you are trying to reach.

The DAN Emergency Hotline is available 24/7 from anywhere in the world and also accepts collect calls that concern EMERGENCY situations. Note also that DAN must make all transportation arrangements PRIOR to an evacuation.
