 Hi, I am Gustavo Ortiz here at the Cal OES State Operations Center. In recognition of Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, Cal OES joined 9-1-1 for kids at the state capitol to honor their own heroes and dispatchers for their exemplary service during an emergency. The 9-1-1 Heroes Program helps emphasize the importance of critical emergency preparedness and response procedures. Eight months after the Dixie Fire tore through the historic mining town of Greenville, Cal OES has planned and executed an unprecedented wildfire recovery mission, removing nearly 96,000 tons of wildfire debris, assisting local partners in regaining life-saving services in the area, and providing temporary housing for displaced residents. Finally, Cal OES also announced a funding opportunity to support the Listos California Campaign. Interested non-profit organizations can apply to help provide Listos California partners with the tools, resources, and broader communication and outreach support to help vulnerable communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters and emergencies.
