The goal of the Michigan NENA Young Hero committee is to recognize a child 12 years of age or younger at the time of the call.
In the past we have focused on the child who has saved a life and had a positive outcome.
Our views have changed, in that, we want to promote 9-1-1 to children and recognize and encourage them for using the system to help others.
