Operation Blue Angel
East Windsor Township - Operation Blue Angel
The East Windsor Township Police Department Operation Blue Angel is a free program designed to assist eligible residents who may be unable to answer their door during an emergency.
Through the program, eligible residents are provided with a Township-owned lockbox that is secured to the residence and contains a key supplied by the resident. In the event of an emergency where the resident is unable to answer the door, responding East Windsor Township Police Officers can access the lockbox and use the key to quickly enter the residence. This allows emergency assistance to be provided while reducing the need to force entry and potentially damage the resident’s property.
Who Is Eligible?
Operation Blue Angel is available to East Windsor Township residents who:
- Are 55 years of age or older and live alone or are routinely home alone for extended periods of time; or
- Have a medical condition that could lead to incapacitation, and live alone or are routinely home alone for extended periods of time.
Participation is subject to review and approval by the East Windsor Township Police Department.
There is no cost to eligible residents to participate in Operation Blue Angel.
