For 26 years, IPSC has been more than an agency - it has been a team of dedicated people united by a common purpose: ensuring that Indiana's first responders can communicate when it matters most.
What began with a handful of temporary staff and a vision has grown into a statewide network supporting 193 public safety communication sites, serving communities in every corner of Indiana. Along the way, countless employees, partners and stakeholders have devoted their time, expertise and passion to building something that has made our state safer and stronger.
As IPSC becomes the Office of Emergency Communications, our name may change but our mission does not. Our commitment to interoperability, reliability, innovation and service remains as strong as ever. This transition represents an opportunity to build on the incredible foundation laid of the past 26 years while strengthening collaboration and preparing for the future.
To preserve this legacy, at our recent staff training all employees signed the IPSC emblem that has hung in our office and we plan to display it in our new home at OEC as to honor our past.
To everyone who has been part of this journey, from the earliest days to today, thank you.
The name is changing.
The mission is not.
The future is just beginning.
