Greenville Police encourage residents to join voluntary Family Profile registry
Summary
Greenville Police promoted a voluntary Family Profile registry to upload sensory needs, medical information and emergency contacts into the city's dispatch system so first responders have household-specific information during emergencies.
Henry Coburn, a city communications presenter, said Greenville Police are encouraging residents to join a voluntary 'Family Profile' registry for households with special needs. "Guardians and caregivers can submit sensory sensitivities, medical information, and emergency contacts, which are then uploaded into the city's dispatch system and shared with 1st responders in an emergency," he said.
The bulletin indicates the registry is voluntary; the broadcast did not provide details about data retention, consent procedures, or how caregivers enroll, and city officials did not specify whether participation affects eligibility for other services.
