Safeguarding children against the threat of abduction or harm by predators is one of the greatest concerns facing parents and guardians today. A study by the U.S. Department of Justice revealed that an average of over 2,000 children are reported missing each day. Of the children reported missing in a one-year period, over 58,000 were the victims of non-family abductions, and nearly a third of those victims were taken from a home or yard. Nearly 40% of the non-family abductions originated in a park, wooded area or other public area.1PreventAbduction.net was established to connect parents with the many resources available to assist with protecting children from abduction. On our site, you will find loads of free information, including safety tips and videos, sex offender registries and links to non-profit agencies that offer educational materials, safety programs and more.

Safety and security don't just happen, they are the result of collective consensus and public investment. We owe our children, the most vulnerable citizens in our society, a life free of violence and fear.
