The CHIP program includes the following:

CHIP stands for
CHILD IDENTIFICATION PROGRAM

The Masonic CHIP Program is the most comprehensive service of its kind anywhere. CHIP is provided free of charge to the public, with all of the identifying items generated during the events given to the child's family.

VIDEOTAPE: A brief videotaped interview that can be
quickly distributed to the media in order to reach a huge audience. With the video officials can capture a still picture from any angle to post with the media.

FINGERPRINTING: Fingerprinting is a well-known means of identification. Resourceful parents keep fingerprints available should the need arise.

TOOTH PRINTS: A tooth print bite impression is quick and easy. Teeth, like fingerprints are unique. A dental imprint gives both accurate and important information for identification purposes. It gives a finger print of the Childs dentures, a source of DNA and a scent for search dogs, hopefully never need, but easily available.

This complete package is presented to the Parents of the Child for safe keeping. In the event something happens this vital information is readily available to be given to the authorities when help is needed!
