Mayor Adams Hosts First-Ever NYC Public Safety Promotion Ceremony

NEW YORK — New York City Mayor Eric Adams today held New York City’s first-ever public safety promotion ceremony and announced plans for the city to build a unified training facility for all of its public safety agencies. The historic event and proposed training facility underscore Mayor Adams’ continued dedication to enhancing public safety through increased efficiency and collaboration between all of the city agencies involved in New York City’s public safety efforts. The training facility also further represents Mayor Adams’ commitment to fiscal responsibility by building a shared, consolidated space to accommodate the city’s myriad public safety training needs.

“New York City remains the safest big city in America thanks to the tireless work of our frontline heroes, and, today, we are promoting 79 heroes from 15 different agencies during the first-ever public safety promotion ceremony,” said Mayor Adams. “Over the last two years, we’ve broken down silos, better connected all our city’s public safety agencies, and given them the tools and resources needed to continue to keep our city safe. This is the best public safety team in the nation, and we’re going to build on that good work by providing them the best training facilities possible. Today’s announcement to build New York City’s first-ever public safety academy campus will not only meet the needs of every agency that helps deliver on our promise of public safety, but also enhance our ability to protect all New Yorkers and visitors to our city.”
