Safeguard Your Child With Free Kid ID Kit
Available March 19 & 20  More than 2,000 American children are reported missing each day. Every second counts when searching for a missing child! When parents don’t have a missing child’s personal or medical information readily available, law enforcement studies report an average 4-hour gap between initial notification and an active police response.
Get a FREE Kid ID Kit that includes a photo, fingerprints, a hair from your child as a DNA sample, and important personal medical information. These kits include instructions in English and Spanish. Kits are available for infants through age 14. All information is turned over to parents -- Boulder Community Hospital does not retain any of it. You will leave with a completed kit. Kits will be available first come first served. There are a limited number of kits available. If you have questions, call 303-441-0411.
