The 9/11 Memorial & Museum engages a variety of stakeholders to fulfill its mission to educate the public about the lasting consequences of 9/11.

Two people have each placed a hand on a bronze parapet at the Memorial. They are next to about a dozen white roses that have been placed at the names of victims.

We offer a host of resources for 9/11 family members. Our registries for survivors and witnesses, rescue and recovery workers, and artists provide dynamic opportunities to maintain a connection. For news from the Memorial and Museum, and for more information about how to get involved, follow our MEMO blog.
