Child Identification Cards 
The Child ID service is available to Lake in the Hills residents only.
Parents and/or guardians can carry this ID card in their purse or wallet, keep it in a safe place, keep in on a child while traveling, or secure it onto the bottom of the child's car seat. The ID card includes a photo of the child, personal information, emergency contact and important medical information.

Child ID Pick Up
Pick up dates are usually 3-5 business days following the initial request. You will receive an email to let you know when the ID is ready for pick up.
You will pick up for your Child ID at our Record's counter. You may come in during regular business hours to the Record's counter in the main lobby M-F 8am - 5pm, closed on holidays. Advise a member of the records team you are here to pick up a child ID from community relations.
If you are coming after hours, 5pm - 8am or any time on the weekend or on a holiday, please visit the lower lobby door (it has a sign over it in blue that says POLICE). You'll enter a small lobby and will pick up the red phone on your right. Let the dispatcher know you are here to pick up a child ID that is in the records office. They will send an officer to meet you at the station. Just let that officer know your Child ID in an envelope left at the Records window.
