ReUnite

ReUnite is a community-based collaborative between United Way and law enforcement agencies in Lee, Hendry, and Glades Counties. It is offered free of charge for children and vulnerable adults who may be prone to wandering or becoming lost.

ReUnite is a multi-layered program that incorporates the Lee County Sheriff’s Office Aviation Unit, drones, and a group of certified Bloodhounds – specifically designated for search and rescue operations. The primary objective is to reduce search time when an individual is reported missing by a caregiver. This program provides families with a free scent kit which will aid search and rescue operations by equipping them with critical information in the event the at-risk individual becomes lost.

ReUnite attends events and presentations in the community to promote this potentially life-saving program.  ReUnite  staff and volunteers assist individuals with enrollment, process applications and make arrangements for acquisition of a new ReUnite member's free scent kit. 

Volunteers are currently needed to assist at events.
