The Georgia Chapter of the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) has named Kayte Vogt, Fayette County 911 Communications Director, as its Director of the Month, recognizing her exceptional leadership and dedication to the public safety communications profession.

Georgia APCO is a member-driven association committed to advancing public safety communications through leadership, professional development, and the promotion of technology to better serve the public and support emergency responders across the state.

Her nomination praised her calm demeanor, strong advocacy for staff, and unwavering focus during complex transitions. “Kayte became a director in the midst of two major and complex projects… She remained calm, focused, and patient, continuously standing up for our center and advocating for the needs of our employees. Kayte’s commitment, resilience, and people-first approach are exactly what makes a great leader in public safety communications.”

This recognition from Georgia APCO is a testament to Kayte Vogt’s tireless efforts and her dedication to ensuring efficient and reliable emergency communications in support of public safety across Georgia.
