How do I report a missing child?

You should not delay. If your child is missing, conduct a quick search around the premises, and then immediately call 911 or the local police or sheriff’s office to make a report. THERE IS NO WAITING PERIOD TO REPORT A MISSING CHILD. The police will want to know what the child was wearing, where (s)he was last seen, and will want a recent photograph of the child. If it is suspected that a non-custodial parent has abducted the child, the police may want a copy of all custody orders as well
