Patriot Day

Patriot day

RISD honors Patriot Day by taking a moment to remember the tragic events of 20 years ago and vowing to never forget those who lost their lives.

The state of Texas also recognizes and honors the bravery, courage, and determination of the men and women who assist others in emergencies by designating Sept. 11 as Texas First Responders Day.
