BE PROACTIVE!  BE PREPARED!

The Masonic CHIP Purple Packets provide parents/guardians with essential information

about your child to give law enforcement and recovery officials

in the event your child is missing.  The packets include:

·     A Digital Still Photo and Digital Video Interview:  Children are asked a series of questions to provide information in front of a height chart backdrop.  The CHIP interview captures the appearance, speech, mannerisms, and other important personal characteristics of a child.  It can be quickly distributed via the media to reach a huge audience and assist in the quick recovery of an abducted child.  (The picture and video are recorded onto a 3” mini-CD, compatible with the Pennsylvania Amber Alert System and given to parent or guardian).  It is the cornerstone of CHIP.

·     Fingerprints: Children’s fingerprints are taken using a non-toxic ink.  Fingerprint cards are given to parent or guardian. 

·     DNA: A DNA kit is provided to parent or guardian to be completed at home.  The DNA kit includes envelopes for hair samples, nail clippings and oral swab for saliva.
