Thank a dispatcher

Dispatchers are the "1st" First Responders, even though you may never see their face.  They are the calm voice on the other end of the phone when you're having your worst day.

If you had a great experience with an Effingham Police Dispatcher, we want to hear about it!

You can send a thank you note to the Police Department outlining a few reasons why you value and respect the work they do every day, or tell us about a specific incident where they delivered top-notch service.

There are a few ways you can send a thank you:

  • Fill out the on-line form below
  • Email
  • USPS mail
  • In person
