A new state law now makes identification cards available to people who have a medically diagnosed developmental disability. These new I/DD ID cards are meant to be presented to law enforcement, firefighters and emergency medical services personnel to aid in the communication process. If you prefer to use a printable form and mail in your request for an IDD/ID card, download and fill out our IDD/ID Card Request Form.
