About Child Response
Child Response provides a proactive plan and prepared materials
for parents should their child
go missing.
If a child is reported missing, the Child Response program
includes supporting tools
and actions designed to support search
efforts and help bring that child home:
The identity
video is provided immediately to law enforcement
and news media, along with a still photo
and fingerprint
Up to 5,000 full-color missing child posters are printed and
distributed
to the home or to local law enforcement
A reward of up to $50,000 is offered for the child's
safe
return and conviction of the abductor
A private investigator is assigned to the
case at no
additional cost
Cost for the program, which includes the kit, scanning
and
electronic storage of the video and all supporting activities if a
child is reported missing
, is $65 per year or $6 per month, until
cancellation or the child turns 15.cosmology pyro

program providing parents with a proactive
plan in case the
unthinkable happens and their child goes missing. The child's name is
only
associated with the video if the child is ever reported missing and
the bar code is provided
to Child Response by the parents.
