Every day, police officers pin on a badge and leave their homes prepared to rush into harm’s way to keep our communities safe.  During Police Week, we recognize the incredible courage of police officers and honor the fallen heroes, whose ultimate sacrifice we can never repay.

Before the heroes show up in a firetruck, there are heroes answering your call. On the other end of 9-1-1 calls are public safety telecommunicators who exhibit amazing dedication. This week we celebrate @CFD_Alarm during National Public Safety Telecommunicators week.
