The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has unveiled two new, innovative resources to help educate and protect the state’s growing senior population.
The first, TBI Find, is a mobile application, available now for both Apple and Android devices, to connect the public with up-to-the minute information about Silver Alerts issued in Tennessee. The app also provides key information to connect seniors and those who care for them with resources designed to support and educate.
A central part of the TBI Find app is its CareKit feature, which enables users to compile key information and pictures on loved ones, which can be compiled and emailed to law enforcement in the event of an emergency.
The second initiative TBI launched on Wednesday is its SafeSeniorTN campaign, available online at www.SafeSeniorTN.com. The website provides easy-to-understand guidance on a variety of technology, financial, and personal safety topics to prevent crimes impacting seniors.
