Candidate for First Vice President
Michael O’Connor

Executive Director – Western Will County Communications Center (WESCOM)

Greetings! I’m Mike O’Connor, and I am seeking the office of 1st Vice President of APCO International.

Almost a year ago, I was honored to be elected by our membership to the position of 2nd Vice President, and have spent that time representing APCO and our membership to the best of my abilities. The past year has been one of many successes, including new partnerships at many levels; continued and increased engagement of the membership; and collaborating to map the future of our great organization.

APCO continues to be recognized as the largest public safety professional organization in the country, advocating for our profession and members on a continuing basis. As we continue to advance these efforts through standards, legislation, and training, our organization will continue to grow.

It would be my privilege and honor to continue serving you and acting as your voice, and would appreciate your consideration and vote for 1st Vice President.

Thank you,

Michael O’Connor
