Project Lifesaver: Project Lifesaver was established in April 0f 1999 as an initiative of the 43rd Search ans Rescue Company of the Chesapeake Sheriff’s Office. Project Lifesaver’s mission is to use state of the art technology in assiting those who care for victims of Alzheimer’s and other Related Metal Dysfunction Disorders(ARMD) and victims who become lost. These victims include the elderly and even the youngest in our community who are afflicted with Down’s Syndrome and Autism. There are no boundaries-no one is immune! Victims of ARMD tend to wander from their homes. Project Lifesaver places personalized radio transmitters on identified persons with ARMD. These transmitters assist caregivers and local emergency agencies in locating those who cannot help themselves. **information taked from the Project Lifesaver brochure of Chesapeake Virginia.** LCCOA, 911 Emergency Response and the Leelanau County Sheriff’s Department are working in conjuction to provide Project Lifesaver in Leelanau County.
