Missing Children: Family Survival Guide & Federal Programs

Each year, nearly 1.3 million children are reported missing. Although the unforeseen absence of a child is always upsetting, fortunately most missing children are returned home in a short period of time.

This book provides helpful advice for parents whose children are missing and also offers encouragement and support. The increased pervasiveness of online media has led to the victimisation of a greater number of children via the Internet.
