The Village of Pelham Manor Police Department, together with Project Community “You & Me” would like to offer an invitation to a special meet-and-greet event at Police Headquarters today, from 1pm to 3pm. “You and Me” is a Project CHILDD (Community Help in Learning about Developmental Disabilities) program in partnership with local law enforcement. A departmental registry has been created for families of special needs citizens which provides important contact information, unique behavioral characteristics and a photograph for each participant. Officers will have immediate access to this information in the field, to help minimize a possibly dangerous encounter that could be caused by a lack of familiarity with special needs citizens. We encourage children of all ages to attend; meet with members of the Pelham Manor Police Department, and learn more about the innovative “You and Me” program aimed at assisting special needs residents of the community.
