Kupuna ID
The Kupuna ID project is intended to help elderly adults, 65 years or older, who may become disoriented, sick or lost by providing them with an identification card that includes their photo, name, and emergency contact information. There is no charge for the Kupuna ID card. The Kupuna ID is NOT an official government issued identification card (cannot be used at airports or banks). It is also NOT an Emergency Medical ID.
The purpose of the card is to assist emergency personnel to identify a lost senior citizen and to contact the appropriate responsible party.
Although no documents are needed, Seniors should come prepared to provide the name and phone number of the emergency contact person.
