To help ensure the safety of community members with cognitive disorders, including dementia and autism spectrum disorder, the police department has created a questionnaire that can be filled out with a police officer. This form will include name, physical description, a picture, emergency contact information, and other information law enforcement or fire department personnel would find useful during a contact with this individual. 

If you would like to include a family member in this program, please reach out to our department at (440) 247- 5036.

After collecting this information, it will be sent to Chagrin Valley Dispatch Center to be added to the emergency response information on the home address.
