Long Hill Twp Police
Special Needs Registry
The Long Hill Twp Police Department is making it easier to help our citizens who may
be lost or have trouble communicating with officers.
Our Special Needs Registry is designed for residents who may be challenged with
developmental disabilities such as Autism, Dementia, Down Syndrome, or other special
needs. The program was created to better assist your loved ones who might be at a
higher risk for wandering from home and getting lost. By voluntarily registering, the
police will have access to personal information should they encounter an individual who
has difficulty speaking or identifying themselves.
Interested family members would be asked to complete a descriptive questionnaire
regarding their family member, providing the registrant’s height, weight, and other
information useful to first-responders, such as emergency contacts, a recent photo of
the individual and home address. The information would be kept on file at
headquarters and would be accessible at times such as during an encounter where an
individual can’t tell officers where he/she lives, or would work in cases where a person
is reported missing, so that their pedigree and photograph are immediately available
to responding police officers.
The program is voluntary and all the information kept confidential within the Long
Hill Twp Police Department.
