The September 11th Victims Compensation Fund Special Master Allison Turkel urges everyone who may have been exposed to dangerous toxins in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks to register for the fund. "Unfortunately, there are still people who are becoming ill or becoming sicker or dying as a result of their exposure, but also the need for the VCF to continue," she says.

Watch below @AGToddBlanche discusses the @Sept11VCF that was established to compensate for physical harm or death caused by 9/11. "Our goal, which is consistent with what @POTUS wants and hopefully what every American wants, is to make sure that we're moving those claims as quickly as possible and making sure we're financially giving back what a lot of people can never get back beyond money."

During #NationalEMSWeek, we honor the courage, skill, and sacrifice of Emergency Medical Services professionals who serve on the front lines of crisis every day. At the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, we also remember the seven EMS members who lost their lives responding to the 9/11 attacks. They were among the first to answer the call, racing towards danger without hesitation to save others. Their bravery reflects the highest ideals of the EMS profession—service, compassion, and resilience in the face of unimaginable tragedy. We honor not only their memory, but the continuing legacy of all EMS personnel who carry forward their commitment every day.
