Part of National Missing Children’s Day on Wednesday, May 25, the Presidio Trust, the United States Park Police and the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association will hold a free Fingerprint Your Child from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Walt Disney Family Museum in the Presidio. Fingerprint cards will be given to parents to keep and distribute to law agencies if, God forbid, anything bad should happen. Parents can also add additional information such as a physical description, medical and dental records, even a DNA sample on the cars, which can then be used by any law enforcement agency to help identify a missing child. No other personal information collected will be kept or stored by any government agency.

Photographers from Lifetouch National School Studios will be on hand to make free photo identification cards for children.

"The child identification kits are an invaluable tool for law enforcement," says sergeant David Williams of the U.S. Park Police. "With them, we are able to quickly identify children involved in missing or abducted child investigations or other emergencies. When combined with a Smile Safe Kids ID card from Lifetouch, we can get a child’s picture, fingerprints and other information to agencies across the state and have an Amber alert issued as little as 15 minutes after a child is first reported missing."
