  12. TASKS • Each town needs to select a P.O.C. If P.O.C. is a volunteer, you need to recruit others to assist in home visits. Use the buddy system! • Each P.O.C. should take 10 registration packets with them. • P.O.C.s need to communicate with their police departments to determine if a local registry exists, and if there is a separate local registration form. • P.O.C.s should see if a camera is available from the police department or council on aging. If not, contact David Vieira and we can work something out.
