25 years ago today, our world changed.
In the year following 9/11, Dr. Allison Adams served as a member of the NJ Disaster Victim’s Recovery Team, working alongside forensic dentists and other dental professionals at the New York City Medical Examiner’s Office to help identify victims of the World Trade Center attacks.
The experience left memories and lessons that remain vivid 25 years later—about service, teamwork, compassion and the importance of helping families find closure.
Today we remember those who were lost, their families, the first responders and everyone who stepped forward to serve.
We will never forget.
Dr. Adams shares her personal recollections of that year at the link in our bio.
