August Club Meeting

Lincoln Emergency Communications Center

Location: LARC Clubhouse (4420 NW 41st St, Lincoln)
Date: August 13, 7:30 PM
Presentation by: Matthew Harwell, ENP

Handling over 400,000 combined emergency and non-emergency calls a year, the Lincoln Emergency Communications Center (LECC) serves Lincoln and Lancaster County. It is where the emergency response process begins. Decisions must be made quickly and correctly; sending the wrong response may result in serious injury, extensive property damage, or even someone’s death.

Join me as I give an insider’s view of the LECC, where we strive to send the right response every time, all the time.

I will also discuss some additional aspects, such as the public safety radio system, managed by the team at the Radio Shop, along with some of our partners, including the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline!

Learn about the work our dedicated emergency communications team does each and every day, and the service they provide to the city of Lincoln and Lancaster County. Bring your questions!
