It wa s first conceived by Patricia Anderson of the Contra Costa County (Calif.) Sheriff’s Office in 1981 and was observed only at that agency for three y ears. Members of the Virginia and North Carolina chapters of the Associati on of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) became involved in the mid-1980s. By the early 1990s\, the national APCO organization convinced Congress of the need for a formal proclamation. Rep. Edward J. Markey (D-M ass.) introduced what became H.J. Res. 284 to create “National Public Safe ty Telecommunicator Week.” According to the Congressional procedure\, it w as presented twice more in 1993 and 1994 and then became permanent\, witho ut the need for annual introduction.
\nThe 911 CARES project has a w ide range of NTW logo products that are great for gifts—or just for yourse lf! Moreover\, the project gives back to the dispatching community\, so th ey are worthy of support. APCO has a blog to share NTW celebrations and ho nors.
\nThe official name of the week when initially introduced in C ongress in 1991 was “National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week.” In th e intervening years\, it has become known by several other names\, includi ng “National Public-Safety Telecommunications Week” and “International Pub lic Safety Telecommunicator’s Week.” The Congressional resolution also sta ted there were more than “500\,000 telecommunications specialists\,” altho ugh other estimates put the number of dispatchers at just over 200\,000. T he Congressional figure may include support personnel and perhaps even tho se in the commercial sector of public safety communications.
