Baltimore is a vibrant city which prides itself on its diversity and commitment to caring for all its residents regardless of their different challenges. However, effective resources for special needs individuals are currently lacking. Several children and families have lost a loved one in Baltimore, due to not having the systems, procedures, and infrastructure in place to support different needs. A tool such as ProjectLifesaver - a public safety program designed to protect and locate individuals with cognitive conditions who have a tendency to wander - could significantly boost the support infrastructure available to us.  ProjectLifesaver has proven incredibly successful in other cities, boasting recoveries in less than 30 minutes (Project Lifesaver International). ProjectLifesaver is a program that residents of Baltimore County have access to, and we believe that Baltimore city residents should have access to the same resource. 

Bringing this resource to Baltimore is a necessity. The introduction of ProjectLifesaver into our city would ensure faster response times during critical missing person incidents, increasing safety and peace of mind for our most vulnerable residents and their families. It would indicate Baltimore's commitment to the welfare of all its citizens, regardless of their individual obstacles. Let's make Baltimore a safer environment for individuals with special needs. Sign the petition today to bring ProjectLifesaver to Baltimore.
