Contact information management

Contact information management is described. In an embodiment, an account can be established for a subscriber to provide contact information for contacting the subscriber in the event that a disaster disrupts a regular communication service of the subscriber. The account can be indexed in a database by associating one or more identifiers for identifying the subscriber with the account, so that the account can be identified based on one or more of the identifiers. The account can be activated when the regular communication service of the subscriber has been disrupted by the disaster, so that the contact information can be provided to a searching person who is attempting to contact the subscriber.
