What Is Take Me Home?

Designed to assist in the timely reunification of loved ones who may become displaced from their homes, the program can provide law enforcement crucial information about the registered person even before we arrive at their residence. Individuals with Autism, Dementia, Alzheimer’s Disease and Down Syndrome are examples of members of our community who might benefit from this registry.

Take Me Home assists law enforcement personnel by providing critical information including emergency contact information, detailed physical descriptions and photographs. An individual’s communication abilities, routines, behaviors and other helpful information also may be entered to assist law enforcement.

Take Me Home is available to residents who live in the Sheriff’s Department 13 contract cities and unincorporated Orange County. The City of Irvine has their own program called Return Registry Program.

If you live elsewhere, contact your local law enforcement agency to see if they have a comparable program in place.
