Bay County Sheriff Tommy Ford, our guest speaker in March, described the Special Needs Registry, an initiative of the Bay County Sheriff's Office.

Its purpose is to compile and maintain a list of individuals who have "special needs" due to mental or neurological disabilities and who may reside in Bay County, Florida.

Residents are invited to proactively provide information about a loved one with special needs of any age, who may require special assistance.

For more information or to add someone to the registry, please visit the Bay County Sheriff's website.

Spot The Scam: Don't be a Target

The Better Business Bureau reports that older adults lose more than $36 billion to financial fraud every year. Seniors are often targeted because they tend to be trusting and polite. They also usually have financial savings, own a home, and have good credit—all of which make them attractive to scammers. How can you protect yourself? Join us, as a member of the PCB Police Department will discuss ways you can protect yourself and your assets. This is a session you do not want to miss
