Does a person in the registry get special treatment from the Sheriffs?
The Special Needs Registry Form does not promise or imply preferential treatment from the Sheriffs Department. The registry information is a tool available to help the Sheriffs be prepared and informed in their response to an individual with special needs, to the best of their ability in a given situation. Having a Registry Form has potential advantages to help the Sheriffs get in contact with caregivers quickly, know ways to communicate and relate with the person, and be aware of medical needs. The sheriffs will already have a picture on file if the person should become lost and can use Registry information to have an idea of where to look for them.
