FREE Senior I.D. Program - Uniondale Library
If you are a senior, or you have a family member or friend who is a senior, and would like a free senior citizen identification card, please join me for my FREE Senior I.D. Program on Monday, April 7th, from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm at the Uniondale Public Library (400 Uniondale Avenue, Uniondale).
The program allows seniors to obtain a free wallet-sized ID card which includes a photo, the holder’s personal contact information (name, address, phone number, date of birth), and an emergency contact name and phone number which would be useful in an emergency situation. The ID can be kept in the wallet so that emergency responders will know who to contact if a senior is in an emergency situation and cannot communicate.
The Senior ID card:
- Includes your personal contact information
- Includes your photo
- Lists an emergency contact name and phone number
- Is helpful to police, fire or ambulance responders in an emergency situation
For information, contact my Community Office at 516-739-1700 or E-mail me at hannon@nysenate.gov.
There is no charge for the card and no appointments are necessary. If you have a friend or know someone who would benefit from this program, please feel free to pass this information along to them!
