There is nothing as terrifying for parents than when a child goes missing. For more than a decade, Michigan Masons have been helping parents and law enforcement secure a piece of mind should the tragedy of a missing child occur through the Michigan CHild ID Program.
​
Masonic Lodges throughout the state of Michigan distribute more than 5,000 identification kits to parents at community and school events each year. The kits are provided free to parents thanks to the generosity and volunteerism of Masons through the Michigan Masonic Charitable Foundation.
​
The Michigan Child ID Program provides parents and guardians with a "Child ID Kit" that contains all the vital information necessary to expedite law enforcement efforts to locate a missing child. The program also helps to educate families about abduction prevention and safety.
​
The kit includes a photo ID card, color photo, digital fingerprints, recorded interview to capture speech characteristics, dental impressions, DNA, and a complete Amber Alert profile.
Michigan Child ID events are scheduled throughout the year and around the state. To learn more about this program, visit: Michigan Child ID
