Prepare For NTW, Support Fellow Dispatchers

The annual week dedicated to the nation’s public safety is approaching—National Public Safety Telecommunicator Week (NTW) begins a week from this Sunday. And there is no better way to show your appreciation for your comm center’s dispatchers and help support dispatchers-in-need than to buy logo merchandise from the 911CARES support organization. Operated by veteran public safety trainer Kevin Willett, 911CARES provides assistance to comm centers and dispatchers who have suffered a financial loss, who are grieving the death of a co-worker or loved one, or who need other assistance to get through a tough time. To help support those efforts, 911CARES is marketing a wide range of clothing, hats, bags, mugs and water bottles, pens, pins and jewelry and other logo gear for NTW. 911CARES says there’s still time to buy and have your merchandise delivered for NTW, and some items cost just $1. You can also directly donate to 911CARES to support their outreach efforts. Recognize your own dispatchers, and support others—start your shopping here.
