Today, on #NationalFirstRespondersDay, we honor the courage and selflessness of the men and women who answer the call to serve and protect. We hold in our hearts the first responders who rushed toward danger on September 11, 2001 — and those who continue to serve our communities every day. Their bravery, compassion, and sacrifice remind us of the best of humanity. At the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, we are committed to preserving their stories and ensuring their legacy endures for generations to come. Thank you to all first responders — past, present, and future — for your unwavering dedication.

The events of September 11, 2001, left an indelible mark on our nation. While we continue to remember the lives lost that day, we must also recognize those who were there. Those who lived, worked, or served in New York City, at the Pentagon, or in Shanksville, Pennsylvania in the days and weeks following the attacks. The September 11th Victim Compensation Fund ((@Sept11VCF) exists to provide support to individuals who were directly impacted. Not only first responders, but also residents, students, volunteers, office workers, and anyone exposed to the toxic debris and conditions that followed. You may be eligible for compensation if you were in these areas, even if you’re not experiencing health issues today. Registering now preserves your rights for the future and does not require you to be sick. To learn more, visit vcf.gov or scan the QR code. The VCF is administered by the U.S. Department of Justice and continues to serve as a vital resource for those who stepped forward in the aftermath of 9/11.
