๐ŸŒŸ Public Safety Resiliency Summit August 23rd-26th 2026 ๐ŸŒŸ

Sgt. Lindsey Javins and Mackenzie Alcorn, LCSW, recently attended the 5th Annual Public Safety Resiliency Summit in Albuquerque, NM, where public safety professionals gathered to focus on resilience, wellness, and crisis response. We are proud that they also presented "From Search to Structure," sharing their expertise with attendees from across the country. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿš”๐Ÿ’™

"From Search to Structure: Building Systems That Prevent Su***de in First Responders" explored the shift from traditional methods to proactive systematic wellness frameworks. Moving beyond basic awareness, this session highlighted how agencies can combat cumulative stress, care for the person behind the badge, and build confidential peer resources to support first responders. This session also detailed the experience of establishing the foundation of the Dickson Peer Support Team and building a long-term culture of change to smash the stigma associated with mental health for first responders.

๐ŸšฆHeads up, Dickson!๐Ÿšฆ

Effective 9/11/2026: The city is implementing a change at the intersection of W. Walnut Street and S. Main Street.

The traffic light will be switched to flashing red lights, and the intersection will operate as a 3-way stop for 90 days. The traffic light will flash red in all directions. Drivers will need to treat the intersection as a three-way stop. After the 90 days, the traffic and safety data will be evaluated to confirm if the traffic light can be removed permanently.

A flashing red light works the same as a three-way stop.

Please be careful and watch for the new traffic signs while everyone gets used to the change. Questions? Call City Hall at 615-441-9508.
