A child is missing assists law enforcement agencies nationwide in the early search and recovery of missing children (often with autism and down syndrome), the elderly (often with alzheimer's disease), on-campus college students, and disabled individuals in the first hours of their disappearance, by use of telephone alert calls. The organization also offers child and adolescent safety education programs to teach personal safety, awareness of bullying, the dangers of the internet, and effective communication to youth ages 5-17. These programs are taught in schools, often to vulnerable/high-risk youth who otherwise might not receive this valuable information, and through parks and recreation departments in summer camp programs.
