Communications

The Communications unit is responsible for promoting the Department’s vision both internally and externally. The unit is responsible for fielding all media inquiries, providing accurate and timely public information, and coordinating media relations, public information, press conferences, as well as events for DJS. The unit also is responsible for managing all information contained in the Department’s website and intranet site. In addition to this general information, the unit is responsible for maintaining regular communication between the Office of the Secretary and the entire staff. To accomplish this task, a weekly newsletter, the I-Bulletin, is internally published and circulated to all DJS staff and all members of all DJS’ advisory boards. The unit works closely with the Secretary to ensure that the Department’s message is consistent with the Department’s goals and overall vision.
