DIA June Updates: Digital Inclusion, Data and Job Openings!

In this week's Partner Spotlight we get to highlight the work of two of our partners - Downtown Dallas Inc. and DART. In collaboration with the Dallas Police Department. Downtown Inc and DART created the Public Safety Summer Operations Plan. The initiative includes new partnerships and DDI staffing, as well as a renewed push for people who live in downtown, workers and visitors to use their dispatch line (214-741-1151) to report non-emergency concerns. The plan also includes the relaunch of the DDI Ambassador position, public-facing customer-service focused employees charged with engaging visitors and residents of Downtown about the best restaurants, retail, entertainment spots, etc., while also focusing on keeping Downtown clean and safe. Congratulations to Downtown Inc. and DART! Learn more here!

Congratulations to our Partners at the Dallas Police Department!

The Dallas Police department was recognized for its “Violent Crime Evidence-Based Reduction Plan” in the Data-Driven Policing category in 2022 IDC's Smart Cities North America awards. The awards were designed to recognize the progress municipalities have made in executing Smart Cities projects, as well as provide a forum for sharing best practices to help accelerate Smart City development. DPD will be honored at Smart Cities Connect being held on April 4-7, 2022. Congratulations DPD!
