The River Vale Police Department is proud to introduce a brand-new community safety initiative designed to protect our most vulnerable residents.
👵👴 Do you or a loved one:
✔️ Live alone or are alone frequently?
✔️ Have a medical condition or special need?
✔️ Want extra peace of mind in case of emergency?
✔️ Age 55+?
Through Operation Blue Angel, a secure lockbox will be placed on your home with a key accessible only to first responders. This ensures River Vale police officers can quickly assist you if you’re unable to answer the door during an emergency.
📍 Free of charge for approved applicants
👮♂️ Confidential & secure
💙 Promoting safety, dignity, and independence
