Alongside of our friends at the NENA foundation and in support of our 9-1-1 clients, Akimeka is devoted to supporting public safety across the nation. While we offer the sincerest gratitude to our first responders – Law Enforcement Officers, EMTs and Firefighters – we want to spotlight the #ThankYou911 on the real first-first responders – the 911 dispatchers at Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs). Your dedication and support to saving lives does not go unnoticed!

I want to thank the unsung heroes of public safety doing the most thankless, under-recognized position in public safety. Most dispatchers find that the job is their calling. They discover they have the internal motivators that make them want to do the job to the best of their ability, not just to help others, but because they know at the end of the worst day, somehow they have made a difference; they have left their mark on society in one form or fashion. And tomorrow, they’ll come back and do it again. It’s what they do.
