"gratitude jars are great, A nice compliment to our employee wellness program"

 A Simple Practice with a Powerful Impact

In a job where the stress runs high and recognition is often quiet, this gratitude jar gives dispatchers a space to reflect, reset, and reconnect with the good, no matter how small.

Whether it’s a positive call outcome, a supportive teammate, or simply getting through a tough shift, writing it down helps shift the focus from overwhelm to appreciation.

It’s not about ignoring the hard moments,  it’s about honoring the good that exists alongside them. One note at a time, this jar becomes a gentle reminder that your efforts matter and that even on the hardest days, there’s always something worth holding onto.

Each jar comes with small strips of paper, a mini Sharpie, and uplifting stickers, little sparks of joy.

Keep it nearby: in your comm center, at your desk, or at home.

At the end of a shift, or whenever you feel moved, take a moment to write down something you’re thankful for. It could be something big, like a successful call,  or something small, like a teammate who made you laugh or a moment of calm in a hectic day.

Drop the note in the jar. Over time, those slips become a powerful collection of perspective, resilience, and reminders that even on the hardest days, something good can still be found.

When you need a boost, pull one out and read it, you’ll be surprised how far you’ve come

A place to pause, reflect, and remind yourself: you matter, and you’re not alone.

This gratitude jar isn’t meant to replace deeper support, but it can serve as a quiet, steady bridge while you find your way to it.

In the moments between tough calls and long shifts, writing down something positive, no matter how small, can offer a sense of grounding.

It’s a simple tool to help you reconnect with your purpose, with yourself, and with hope.

Peer support, therapy, and other resources are essential parts of long-term wellness, this jar simply gives you a place to start.

Gratitude doesn’t erase the tough, it helps you carry it with more strength, clarity, and hope

In the high-stress world of emergency dispatch, it’s easy for the hard moments to take up all the space.

Practicing gratitude, even in small ways, can help shift your perspective, reduce burnout, and bring balance to your day.

A gratitude jar is a simple but powerful tool: it creates a tangible space to acknowledge the good that often gets overlooked.

Whether it’s a supportive teammate, a moment of calm, or something personal that got you through the shift, capturing those moments builds resilience over time.

Gratitude Jars make meaningful gifts for anyone , whether it’s a fellow dispatcher, a friend, a family member, or a teammate.

Simple yet heartfelt, they encourage reflection, connection, and emotional well-being. Perfect for appreciation events like National Public Safety Telecommunications Week, holidays, or “just because.”

Each jar is a thoughtful reminder that says, “You matter” and “What you do makes a difference.”

Though designed with 911 professionals in mind, gratitude jars are for everyone. Whether used individually or shared as a group activity, they help strengthen bonds, boost morale, and create lasting moments of positivity.
