The Take Me Home program is sponsored by Summit County Prosecutor Sherri Bevan Walsh and Sheriff Drew Alexander.  The program consists of a database of individuals who may have trouble communicating their name and where they live – such as individuals with autism, non-verbal individuals with cognitive disabilities or senior citizens with dementia or Alzheimer’s.  The Take Me Home database contains a photo, identifying characteristics and contact information.  It is a valuable tool for law enforcement agencies as well as families and caregivers. 

In the event a person is lost or separated from their loved ones, a search of the database, based on the individual's characteristics, will allow law enforcement personnel to match their Take Me Home record to their contact information. Only law enforcement personnel can access the Take Me Home database. 

Registration is free and simple.  For more information, contact Leslie Knoblauch at Prosecutor Walsh’s office or Sgt. Mike Walsh at the Sheriff’s Department.  You may also call participating Law Enforcement Partners who can help with registration.
