Today, the Juneau Police Department stood with our community and fellow first responders in honoring those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001. We remember the courage of the first responders who rushed toward danger, the selfless actions of everyday citizens who helped one another, and the service members who answered the nation's call in the years that followed. May their sacrifices never be forgotten, and may we continue to uphold the unity and strength that emerged in the midst of tragedy.

Here’s a story from Micah, a dispatcher with the Juneau Police Department, about a situation where he used his role to bring a vulnerable resident home:

“The Juneau Police Department received a call from the downtown bus depot. We were told that there was an older lady hanging out there. When one of the officers checked on her, she seemed fine, but she just kept sitting there for hours. Then, this guy showed up at the police department and told us his mom was missing. I instantly knew who and where she was. I sent an officer to the woman at the depot, and sure enough, it was this guy’s mother.”

You can be a link in the Chain of Survival for someone experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. Call 9-1-1 and provide chest compressions. CPR performed by bystanders can double or triple a person’s chance of survival. If you don’t know CPR, our 9-1-1 dispatchers will provide instructions for hands only CPR (no mouth to mouth necessary). Even better, sign up for a CPR class.
