Humboldt, IA -This week is National Telecommunicators Week, and KHBT talked to Humboldt County Sherriff Dean Kruger about the role his dispatchers play in the Law Enforcement Center.

National Public Safety Telecommunications Week was founded to honor the telecommunication personnel dedicating their lives to public safety.

It was a local initiative that was initially set up in 1981 by Patricia Anderson of Contra Costa County, which later went on to become a nationwide, week-long event.
