Missing children

The America's Missing: Broadcast Emergency Response (AMBER) Alert System is a voluntary partnership between law-enforcement agencies, broadcasters, transportation agencies, and the wireless industry to activate an urgent bulletin in the most serious child abduction cases. The AMBER Alert website provides information on issuing AMBER Alerts, toolkits for raising awareness, and more.

The mission of the Crimes Against Children Research Center is to combat crimes against children by providing high quality research and statistics to the public, policymakers, law enforcement personnel, and other child welfare practitioners.

This agency provides services to parents in cases of international family abductions. If you believe your child is in the process of being abducted by a parent, legal guardian, or someone acting on their behalf, call 888-407-4747 or 202-501-4444 or email [email protected].
