🌟 Georgetown Police Department Launches the Silver Alert Program
The Georgetown Police Department is proud to offer the Silver Alert Program — a voluntary, confidential registry designed to help protect some of Georgetown’s most vulnerable residents.

This program supports individuals living with Alzheimer’s, dementia, memory‑related disorders, cognitive impairments, or other disabilities that may increase the risk of wandering or becoming disoriented.

What the Program Does —
If a registered resident goes missing or becomes confused, officers can quickly access their photo, essential medical information, calming strategies, triggers, and emergency contacts. This allows us to respond faster, more safely, and with the individualized care each person deserves.

📝 How to Register —
Family members, caregivers, and loved ones can register someone by completing the secure form on our website.
The program is completely voluntary, and all information is kept confidential within the Georgetown Police database.

If you have a family member or someone in your care who may benefit, we encourage you to enroll them today.

Today, May 15, is National Peace Officers Memorial Day, observed during National Police Week as we honor the brave men and women of law enforcement who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to their communities.

Established in 1962 and proclaimed by President John F. Kennedy in 1963, Police Week serves as a time to recognize the dedication, courage, and commitment of law enforcement officers across the nation.
