Each year during the second week of April, telecommunications personnel in the public safety community, are honored.
This week-long event, initially set up in 1981 by Patricia Anderson of the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office in California, is a time to celebrate and thank those who dedicate their lives to serving the public.
It is a week that should be set aside so everyone can be made aware of their hard work and dedication.
This year, National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week is celebrated from April 14th through April 20th.
We appreciate our dispatchers and the work they do helping to keep our officers and the community safe.
Please join us in thanking them for this important work!
