Sheriff Paul Arteta is proud to announce that the Orange County Sheriff’s Office is offering the Safe Child ID program to all parents in Orange County. This program has been designed by the New York State Department of Criminal Justice Services and is being made available to local residents.
How the Program Works

The ID card will have pertinent information about the child. This information includes the child’s name, date of birth. eye and hair color along with the child’s height and weight. The identification is printed and given to parents for safekeeping.

Parental consent is available in both Spanish and English below.
