Be prepared.

Keep their identity in your hands.

SafeID helps Ontario families prepare identification kits for children and older adults — ready if they are ever needed.

Free for families. Private by design.

HOW IT WORKS

How SafeID works

76,000+ children served across Ontario.

Just 10–15 minutes — no more than 15 minutes to complete your kit.

Offiacially helping police when it matters

SafeID is an Ontario Masons program working with regional and national law enforcement agencies.

Kits use police-approved identification techniques to help police if someone goes missing.

Information is shared with police only when the kit holder or their authorized representative provides it.
