One of my clients in California brought it to our attention that the second week in April is National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. Does your station and/or community do anything special to honor your local 911 operators?
If you’re looking for ideas, check out the NPSTW website, which posts notes from comm centers all over the country, explaining how they celebrate this week and honor their dispatchers.
Grace Broadcast Sales is offering a set of salutes to 911 operators that you can air during NPSTW and other times during the year; we suggest that you invite area hospitals, healthcare providers, and other members of your community – as well as local law enforcement and emergency services – to partner with your station in airing these features. Demo and details available here.
