Jamaica Plain—On July 13, Sheriff Andrea J. Cabral visited
the Farnsworth House in Jamaica Plain to provide the seniors living
there with identification cards. The Elderly Identification program
is an innovative approach designed to extend to seniors of Suffolk
County an identification card that can be used as a second form
of identification but also has contact and medical information
if an emergency situation arises. The Sheriff spoke to the seniors
about the public safety programs offered by the Department and
encouraged them to take advantage of these programs.
