Dear Families,
On Wednesday, June 2nd, VOICES is hosting a virtual Private Meeting for 9/11 Families with Dr. Barbara Sampson, and her team at the New York City Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME). The program will include a presentation along with a virtual tour of the DNA lab, and time for participants to ask questions.
Many of you may have attended the meeting hosted by Dr. Sampson in June of 2019, when she updated families on their progress and demonstrated the new advancements in DNA techniques used to identify our loved ones. Recognizing that September is an emotional time, we thought it important for the OCME and her staff to provide another update in advance of the 20th Anniversary.
As you are aware, Dr. Sampson is committed to identifying all of the remains in their possession at the OCME. We are especially grateful for their dedication, and the care and compassion the staff has provided for our families.
We hope this important meeting, will provide you with the opportunity to ask questions about their work and the ongoing identification process.
