Special Needs Registry

In 2024, the Union County Prosecutor's Office launched the Special Needs Registry, aimed at helping law enforcement better serve individuals with disabilities and special health needs. This voluntary program enhances communication between police and registered individuals by providing critical information such as needs, communication methods, and emergency contacts. Accessible only to authorized personnel, such as the Clark Police dispatchers in relevant situations, the confidential registry promotes community trust and safety.

 Benefits include improved communication, conflict de-escalation, and alignment with the broader goal of fostering an inclusive community. Registration is free and can be completed online or through local law enforcement, including details like name, address, nature of disability, a current photo, and optional information like medications and doctor details. This information proves vital in emergencies, saving time and enhancing response effectiveness.

The registry operates collaboratively within the Online Policing Solutions (OPS) Network, ensuring cross-jurisdictional support. Individuals with special needs or their guardians are encouraged to register, supporting first responders in effectively addressing emergencies or other situations.
