Le meilleur des meilleurs messages #ThankYou911
Every day all across the U.S., 9-1-1 telecommunicators, supervisors, public educators and many others work around the clock to provide help to every person who needs it. These individuals answer the calls, provide the reassuring words that help is on the way, and deliver important safety tips and resources.
April was #911EducationMonth, and it was also recently National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week! We loved seeing appreciation for 9-1-1 call takers everywhere on social media. Local governments and dispatch centers went above and beyond to thank their 9-1-1 telecommunicators. Here are some of our favorite #ThankYou911 posts from this year:
1. The Atlanta E911 Communications Center honors dedicated dispatchers with social media shout outs.
