Dispatchers Check In

Who Checks In on the People Who Answer the Call?

Why this community

911 dispatchers spend their workdays answering other people’s moments of urgency. The call ends and the next one begins.

America Checks In™ creates a reason to turn the check-in toward the people behind the headset — not as a program requirement, as a human one.

The invitation

This is a professional community that is very good at asking others what is wrong and rarely asked in return.

  1. 01Start with yourself.
  2. 02Check on three.
  3. 03Keep checking in.

Going first means one dispatcher checks in with themselves between calls, checks on three colleagues or people at home, and keeps it going past a single shift.

How to participate

Go first. It takes a minute.

Check in with you, think of your three, and reach out. Everything else in the movement happens after that.

For leaders

Bringing this to a group, a congregation, a team or a company?
