Our purpose in the "Good Morning Amherst" program is to provide persons who live alone a secure feeling in knowing that someone is in contact with them daily and will provide them with help when needed.
It is requested that you call the Amherst Police Department each morning between 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. to check in. If we do not hear from you by 10:00 a.m., we will call you to make sure everything is alright. If we still cannot reach you, we will send a police officer to your home to check on you.
If you are interested in being a part of our "Good Morning Amherst" program, please fill out the GMA questionnaire and return it to the Amherst Police Department. It is very important that you provide us with all of the information requested so that we can contact the necessary persons in the event of an emergency.
Should you have any questions about our program, please feel free to send an Email with your question or you can call the Amherst Police Department at 673-4900.
