Safe Kids Identification Program. This inexpensive kit could save your child's life.
The American Institute On Domestic Violence is a nonprofit organization that has long been dedicated to the safety of women, children and their families. Our signature project is called SKIP - Safe Kids Identification Program. SKIP is the most comprehensive child ID program available. These ID kits provide law enforcement agencies with critical information that dramatically improves agency response time when trying to locate a missing child or issue an Amber Alert. Every parent’s worst nightmare is the disappearance of a child. In today’s society with over 800,000 children reported missing each year, the problem cannot be ignored.
The first component is a state-of-the-art computer ID program that saves two photographs of your child...a front portrait and a side profile...and vital statistics about the child such as height, weight, eye and hair color, birthmarks, scars and medical issues. This information is stored on the parent's home computer. As the child grows, the parent continues to update the child's information. According to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, this update should be done every six months to make sure that all identifying information & pictures are current.
The second component involves a Toothprints dental wafer that captures the child's bite pattern --- which is as unique to each individual as fingerprints ---their DNA & the child's scent for police tracking dogs. Toothprints are an amazing documentation and recovery tool for missing children. SKIP is proud to offer the Toothprints dental wafer as part of our digital ID kits.
