Abstract
A device may receive, from a user device, a group text message. The device may identify a group of recipients associated with the group text message. The device may determine that the group of recipients includes an emergency services recipient and a non-emergency services recipient. The device may generate an emergency call text message based on the group of recipients including the emergency services recipient and the non-emergency services recipient. The device may send the emergency call text message to the emergency services recipient without sending the emergency call text message to the non-emergency services recipient. The device may send the group text message to the non-emergency services recipient without sending the group text message to the emergency services recipient.
