The Warren County Sheriff’s Office Child Identification Program provides parents/guardians with personal fingerprint identification cards for children ages four and up. Parents of toddler-age children are provided with a special identification packet designed for parental utilization with their child at home.  

Child fingerprinting is usually done by our D.A.R.E. (Drug Awareness Resistance Education) Officers during annual community events. Completed child fingerprint cards are given to the parent/guardian of the child and should be kept with the child’s personal records.  Dates and times of community child identification events are advertised via local media services. This service is provided to the public free of charge.

For more information regarding our Child Identification Program, contact Lieutenant Jennifer Laney-Kirkland at 540-635-4128 or via e-mail This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

The Warren County Sheriff’s Office involvement with the Front Royal/Warren Co. TRIAD Council began in 2001. Our Sheriff’s Office provides a deputy representative to attend monthly meetings and assist with fundraising and other program support.

 The concept of TRIAD equates to the following three tiers or triangle of service to the senior citizen community:

•  Senior Citizen involvement as active members of the council. Seniors are provided with the opportunity to directly participate in any or all of the meetings and all decision making processes.
•  Law Enforcement involvement provides crime prevention education regarding awareness and prevention of scams, property crimes, fraud, community safety, and home security strategies.
•  Support Agencies, Organizations, and Community Partners all function as a combined consultant base and or providers of senior support services within the North Western Virginia Area. Examples of these include Churches, Warren Co. Social Services, Warren Co. Senior Center, Home Instead, and Shenandoah Area Agency on Aging.

 The continued success of the Front Royal/Warren County TRIAD/S.A.L.T. Council is directly related to the cooperative efforts of the three entities listed above.

 S.A.L.T.  (Seniors and Law Enforcement Together) remains a vital affiliate of the TRIAD concept “providing a safety net” for many of our most venerable senior citizens. The positive relationship that is fostered between senior citizens and law enforcement is invaluable.   

 The Warren County Sheriff’s Office maintains involvement in TRIAD / S.A.L.T. by providing deputy support and assists by applying for grant funding for Project Life-Line and Auto-Dialer programs. Project Life-Line and the Auto-Dialer System provides essential services to those senior citizens who live alone and are susceptible to falls within or outside of their homes, or senior citizens having other special medical conditions that require special monitoring. Life-line and auto-dialer devices are electronic units worn by senior citizens that are easily accessed in an emergency.  

Project Life-Line or Auto-Dialer applicant processing is accomplished at the Shenandoah Area Agency on Aging, at 207 Mosby Lane, Front Royal. Shenandoah Area Agency on Aging can be reached by email at Go to http://www.shenandoahaaa.com/ or by calling 1-540-635-7141.

A PROGRAM, NOT A PRODUCT
Project Lifesaver is more than wearable locating technology; it’s a program comprised of components specifically designed to protect “at risk” individuals such as Alzheimer's patients or children with down syndrome or autism who are prone to wandering.  

Project Lifesaver relies on pulse-carrier wave radio-frequency technology, complimented by a search and rescue team that has received special training.  People who use the services wear a personalized one-ounce wristband that emits a constant tracking signal.  When caregivers notify the local Project Lifesaver agency that the person is missing, a search and rescue team responds to the wanderer's area and starts searching with the mobile locator tracking system. Search and rescue times have been reduced from hours and days to minutes.  Since the program was introduced Project lifesaver has successfully rescued 2,500 individuals. 

The Project Lifesaver fee is $25 per month for the receiver bracelet providing caregivers of our community with peace of mind knowing their loved ones are protected in the event of elopement.  
Since 2006, the Warren County Sheriff’s Office been a member of the Project Lifesaver community to offer our residents the most widely used and proven most effective SAR program designed for “at risk” populations.  Project Lifesaver bridges the gap between first responders and their communities. Relationships are formed, and trust is built.  Project Lifesaver reduces the time, funds, and manpower needed for search and rescue missions involving a special needs individual. 

The service can be suspended or discontinued at any time.
The Warren County Sheriff's Office will come to your home, provide the tracking bracelet and even change the batteries as needed. If you'd like to remove your loved one from the program simply contact us.

Financial assistance may be available, if you are interested in Project Lifesaver or any questions, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., SRO/Community Events Coordinator at 540-635-4128 and we will be happy to assist you!  

For years, many places assumed that “it can’t happen here.” It took catastrophic active-shooter events for the majority of people to realize that they were vulnerable to a church, school or office shooter.

The number one concern of the Warren County Sheriff’s Office is the safety and security of our citizens and visitors. Our deputies regularly train to provide a proper response to critical incidents like active shooter situations. Just as important as response, we also train on how to identify potential threats to minimize the possibility of an incident occurring. The Warren County Sheriff’s Office offers its training and experience to help make your worship center, school or office a safer place.

If you have a current incident plan in place or are looking for a place to start, we would like to help. The Sheriff’s Office would like to offer incident response evaluation and training to your organization at no cost.

In order to best understand individual security challenges we will conduct an analysis of the current state of your security picture as a whole. This includes a look at your facility, practices, a security review, vulnerability assessments, and more! After identifying the security and risks, we begin to help implement the strategic initiatives, policies and training that will directly combat these risks.
