Two people have each placed a hand on a bronze parapet at the Memorial. They are next to about a dozen white roses that have been placed at the names of victims.
Each day we remember the victims, the families, and survivors dealing with loss, recognizing the lasting consequences of 9/11 on individual lives.

We actively engage with 9/11 family members, survivors, and rescue and recovery workers to offer services, education, and moments of connection and healing.
