The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's mission has been to help bring missing children home. To help fight child predators, promote prevention, combat child sexual exploitation, and assist law enforcement as they fight child sex trafficking.
Every year, we get more than 400,000 missing child reports.
For more than 30 years, we've helped bring them home. We never stop searching. Because we know that you're out there and we're here because we care.
