Through a highly anticipated collaboration, People Plus, Merrymeeting Bay TRIAD, the Brunswick police, fire and EMT departments bring the

 
 
Yellow Dot Program to the area.

The Yellow Dot is a free program designed to help first responders provide life-saving medical attention in the first minutes after an accident or medical emergency, by gaining valuable life-saving information from within your vehicle. The yellow dot sticker on a car tells the responders vital information about the passengers is stored in the glove box. Treatment within the first “golden hour” is critical after any accident.

Starting Feb. 7, People Plus will become an enrollment site for this program. They will distribute kits that contain enrollment materials.

Enrollment in this program is available at People Plus the first Thursday of every month from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. They encourage applicants to bring in a recent photo (shoulders and above) with them as they register.

For more information, contact People Plus at 729-0757.
