Do you know someone who is struggling with Autism, Dementia, or other special needs? If the answer is “Yes” then the Longwood Police Department has a program to help improve law enforcement’s response to those with special needs.
The Special Needs Directory helps police officers improve services to those at risk of becoming lost or disoriented in our community. By adding your loved ones to the Longwood Police Department Special Needs Program, those at risk will receive a free high visibility sticker for their residence or vehicle.
Key information will be collected through the registration process and entered into a secure database. This information and the special identifiers will help law enforcement provide a faster, more seamless response to those in need.
Wellness, safety, and supporting our community are not only our mission but consistent with the Longwood Police Department’s guiding principles to protect and serve our community.
Any City of Longwood resident who requires additional assistance due to special needs during police, fire, or medical emergency may submit information to the directory. This includes any physical or mental disability that would limit an individual’s ability to communicate or cooperate with first responders.
