"When a 13-year-old North Carolina girl went missing last fall, the FBI and state and local partners worked quickly to locate her—more than 900 miles from home in Oklahoma. The man who lured the girl away was arrested and is facing state charges. The girl was returned to her family.
Sadly, though, not every missing child is found. Many of the children on the FBI’s Kidnappings & Missing Persons webpage have been missing for months or years. In recognition of National Missing Children’s Day—held every year on May 25—take a look at the faces of the missing children seen here and contact law enforcement if you have any information that might bring them home to their families.
The FBI’s Violent Crimes Against Children Program works with federal, state, local, tribal, and international partners to help identify and locate child victims. The FBI’s Child Abduction Rapid Deployment Teams provide support to law enforcement in the critical hours immediately after a child is abducted, especially by a non-family member. The FBI also works with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Childrenand contributes to international task forces that investigate crimes against children..."Missing children
