Public Affairs

The Public Affairs Division is responsible for establishing and maintaining public understanding and confidence in the Navy and Marine Corps safety programs. As the command’s public-information clearinghouse, in cooperation with the command’s JAG/FOIA officer, the Marketing and Public Affairs Department directs the operation of a comprehensive public relations and awareness program.
  • Internal/External Information: We are responsible for all public affairs efforts to communicate with the internal workforce. The staff manages the development and production of internal information materials such as annual reports, strategic plans, and fact sheets.
  • Media Relations: To ensure accuracy and timeliness of information, we maintain liaison with the Chief of Information Office in dealing with news media representatives at local, regional, and national levels. We also arrange and coordinate press conferences and media visits. The Command Information Officer (CIO) is the point of contact for press releases and advisories, interviews, and media training.
  • Community Relations: The Marketing and Public Affairs Department coordinates activities that place Navy and Marine Corps personnel, as well as Safety Center products and services in direct contact with the public. We coordinate military and civilian volunteers for participation in special events and programs. Our trained staff serves as information source for employees and community on potential impact issues.
