1. How do I know if my loved one qualifies for Project Lifesaver?: Project Lifesaver aids victims and families suffering from Alzheimer's Disease and related disorders as well as individuals with Down's Syndrome or Autism.

2. How much does it cost to enroll?: The cost of a Project Lifesaver wristband is $300. This covers the initial equipment purchase and 12 months of battery changes. After the first year of service, there is a monthly fee of $10 to cover the cost of maintaining the battery and wristband.

3. What if I can't afford to enroll in Project Lifesaver?

The Price County Project Lifesaver Steering Committee believes each person who needs a wristband should have one, regardless of ability to pay. Most counties offering the program keep reserve funds for the purpose of providing scholarships to those who are unable to cover the cost of the wristband.

Anyone is eligible for assistance. Each family is asked to offset as much of the cost as their budget will allow. This ensures that funds will remain available for others who are also in need of assistance.
