Philadelphia Police Department takes advantage of the services
offered by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children
to assist us in the dissemination of missing children information.
By coordinating our efforts with those of this national center
we are able to multiply and broaden the effectiveness of our investigative
efforts.
While Philadelphia residents can be expected to visit the Philadelphia
Police web site, the same cannot be said of citizens from other
parts of the country. The NCMEC site, by contrast, is visited
by people who reside throughout the country and internationally
as well. Clearly, utilizing this resource allows us to share our
missing children cases with millions of Americans instead of just
the citizens of a single city.
Please refer to this brief tutorial so you can easily view missing
children from Philadelphia. Note, it might be helpful if you print
this page for reference before visiting the MCMEC web site. Remember,
the search form isn't on this page. The samples are taken from
the NCMEC site. Step One
Go to the NCMEC
Search Page.
Step Two
Under the 'Missing Date' section,
enter "40" in the 'Missing in the Last' 'Year(s)' box.
Step Three
Under the 'Missing from' section,
enter "Philadelphia" in the 'City' box.
Step Four
Once you click the blue box the results for Philadelphia will
be displayed. Photos include time of disappearance and age progressed.
In addition, you can print missing persons posters that can be
shared with friends, neighbors and relatives.
If you think you know the whereabouts of any of these children
or may have some other information please contact us at address
and phone number provided.
