National Missing Children’s Day 2017
Help Us Find Them
After a teenage girl was reported missing
in Virginia earlier this year, the FBI and police worked quickly to
reunite her with her family and arrest the man who’d lured her away.
Unfortunately,
not all lost children are found quickly, and some never make it home.
On National Missing Children’s Day, the FBI asks the public for help in
locating any of the victims pictured here from our Kidnapping and
Missing Persons webpage.
With its partners, the FBI continues its
efforts to eradicate predators from communities and to keep children
safe. Ready response teams are stationed across the country to quickly
respond to abductions. The Bureau offers a full array of forensic tools
such as DNA, trace evidence, impression evidence, and digital forensics.
And through improved communications, law enforcement also has the
ability to quickly share information with partners throughout the world.
The
FBI also has several programs in place to educate both parents and
children about the dangers posed by predators—in person and online—and
to recover missing and endangered children should they be taken. Through
the Child Abduction Rapid Deployment Teams, Innocence Lost National
Initiative, Innocent Images National Initiative, annual Operation Cross
Country, Office for Victim Assistance, Child Exploitation Task Forces,
and numerous community outreach initiatives, the FBI and law enforcement
partners are working to keep the most vulnerable among us safe and
secure.
Note: The children pictured here may have been located since this information was posted. Please check our Wanted by the FBI webpage for up-to-date information.
