The Jeff Grossman 9-1-1 Award was established by Jeff’s colleagues in memory of a man who, without consideration for personal gain or recognition, devoted a significant part of his life to the challenge of improving public safety.

Through his tireless efforts, Jeff was largely responsible for the implementation of the statewide 9-1-1 system in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

The Jeff Grossman 9-1-1 Telecommunicator of the Year award is presented annually to a public safety official, dispatcher, supervisor, engineer, 9-1-1 call taker or PSAP manager who displays the traits exemplified by Jeff during his life: that of unwavering commitment to public safety communications without seeking personal gain.
