    Meet the PETs Pod!

    Welcome to Episode 0 of the PETS Pod! Before we dive into interviews, stories, and all things 9-1-1 public education, we wanted to take a few minutes to introduce ourselves and share what the PETS Pod is all about. The PETS Pod is the official podcast of the 911 Public Educators of Texas (PETS), created by public educators, for public educators. Our goal is to connect professionals across Texas and beyond by sharing ideas, best practices, lessons learned, and the occasional "we've all been there" moment. Whether you're building a public education program from the ground up, looking for fresh ideas for your next community event, or simply want to hear how others are making a difference in their communities, this podcast is for you. Each episode will feature conversations with public educators, dispatch professionals, industry partners, and subject matter experts covering everything from school presentations and community outreach to funding, partnerships, special events, public safety campaigns, and the future of 9-1-1 public education. We'll also bring you roundtable discussions, listener Q&A episodes, mini-series, and plenty of practical tips you can take back to your own agency. So grab your coffee, settle in, and join the conversation. We're excited you're here and can't wait to learn alongside you. Want to learn more about PETS or become a member?
