Free Sheriff’s Children's ID Program

The Fairfax County Sheriff’s office is currently providing parents and caregivers with a free ID card for children at scheduled events around the County.  

The laminated card being dispensed is about the size of a driver’s license and includes a photo, thumbprints and other vital information for authorities to use in case a child goes missing. The ID process takes less than four minutes and uses clean, inkless technology. The Sheriff’s Office recommends that parents tuck away the card for safekeeping and have it updated with a new photo once a year.

A 90-second YouTube video shows how simple it is to get your child’s photo and fingerprints on a card, just in case you need it.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZKl-CQ5aGs.
