AT&T helps community connect better with first responders



MILWAUKEE -- National Night Out this year is Tuesday, August 7. That's the one-night per year when people in all 50 states participate in neighborhood events to promote police and community partnerships and neighborhood safety. Nathan Fricke from AT&T talks about how it's responding to the needs of our first responders through FirstNet.

So what is FirstNet? It's a nationwide public safety communications platform. AT&T was selected by FirstNet to build and manage that network. We worked hand-in-hand with states and public safety to make sure the network is making their communications simpler, safer, faster and more effective.
