In 2017, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children had 27,000 cases added to a database of missing children in the U.S. that has more than 400,000 entries. The cases are called in to the center by police and represent situations that law enforcement needs extra help solving. These numbers don't include the thousands of other cases solved by police around the country, which makes compiling a comprehensive picture of the situation far more difficult.
The following list includes stories from each state, representing a fraction of the cases that can be searched on the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children database.
A special message from MSN:
This month we're working with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, the Missing Children Society of Canada, and Baby Come Home to help reunite kids with their families. Together, we're making progress. Baby Come Home is using Microsoft facial recognition to identify missing kids in crowds, for instance, and the Missing Children Society of Canada has scaled its powerful social media tools to millions more people using the Microsoft cloud. You can help, too. Please consider donating your time or money now.
