Project Lifesaver

The Police Department has implemented a new, exciting program called Project Lifesaver.  Project Lifesaver provides public safety agencies with equipment and training to locate and rescue individuals who are prone to the life-threatening behavior of wandering.  The primary mission of Project Lifesaver is to provide timely response to save lives and reduce potential injury for adults and children with the propensity to wander due to a cognitive condition. Residents or caregivers of residents can contact the Police Department about registering for the program.  The program should be fully operational by 2022t and once fully operational visitors can also register for a device while visiting Edisto Beach.

Council approved funding July 8, 2021.
