Free Senior ID Card Program

     Senator Jack M. Martins (R-7th Senate District), Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano, and Nassau County Legislator Rich Nicolello will be sponsoring a free Senior ID Card Program in Albertson. 

     The program will be held from 1 pm to 3 pm on Wednesday, October 21st at the Shelter Rock Library (165 Searingtown Road, Albertson). All Nassau County residents ages 60 and over are eligible to participate and receive a free senior ID card. No appointments are necessary. 

     The program allows seniors to obtain a free wallet-sized ID card which includes their photo and personal contact information (name, address, phone number, date of birth) along with an emergency contact name and phone number which could be useful to emergency responders. Seniors can carry the card in their wallets so that first responders will know who to contact in the event of an emergency where the senior is unable to communicate with them. 

     Residents who would like more information about the free Senior ID Card program at the Shelter Rock Library on October 21st can call Senator Martins’ office at 516-746-5924.
