County offers kid identification pics

The Island Now

Free photo identification cards for children will be given to Nassau County parents and kids this summer by Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano. 

The program, called KidPix, provides children with an ID card that includes a picture, fingerprint, contact information, the date of birth, physical description and gender of the child.

“The KidPix program provides parents a convenient way to keep their children’s important information on a single, wallet sized ID card,” Mangano said. “If ever a child is missing, parents can present the KidPix card to law enforcement officials as a helpful tool to help return the child quickly.”

Nassau County children of all ages can participate in the KidPix program.  Photos and fingerprints will be processed on-site and families will be able to take their KidPix cards home right from the event.

Saturday, July 27: 10: a.m. to 2 p.m. at Dan Ratkewitch AllState Agency at 18 West Village Green in Hicksville.
