Help the PSFA influence the future of public safety communications
Since its inception in 2002, the PSFA has donated more than $13 million to over 250 public safety agencies across the country to assist in the deployment of Enhanced 9-1-1 and more than 200 telecommunicators for disaster relief and other emergencies. The PSFA continues its grant making in support of public and nonprofit public safety communications efforts.
