Rescue is Just the Beginning

Creating Better Outcomes for Vulnerable Kids

When Every Second Counts, Collaboration is the Key to Better Outcomes

A New Model for Finding & Protecting endangered Children

At the National Child Protection Task Force, we stand alongside law enforcement, child protection professionals, and community leaders to strengthen how missing, exploited, and trafficked children are found and protected.

Our Missing Child Rescue Operations and Targeted Assistance Operations act as force multipliers—bringing together expertise, cutting-edge technology, and collaborative strategies to help solve cases faster. The result? More children recovered. More dangerous offenders identified. More lives changed.

But finding a child is just the beginning. Real change happens when communities take action to close the gaps that put kids at risk in the first place.

Through these operations, professionals leave with new skills, stronger networks, and better resources, ensuring that every child has a better chance at safety—not just today, but for years to come.

Because protecting children isn’t just an effort—it’s a commitment. And the communities stepping up to make that commitment are changing the future for vulnerable kids everywhere.

What happens in a missing child rescue operation?

A Missing Child Rescue Operation is an intensive, multi-agency effort designed to locate missing children while strengthening community response systems. Missing Child Rescue Operations are not just search efforts—they are catalysts for change. They help professionals identify risk factors, improve intervention strategies, and create pathways for better long-term outcomes for vulnerable kids.

Intelligence-Driven Investigations

Our experts work side-by-side with law enforcement, using advanced techniques to accelerate investigations and locate missing kids faster.

Technology That Saves Lives

NCPTF leverages over $1 million dollars in investigative technology to accelerate investigative efforts when every second counts.

We know that the professionals working in child protection, law enforcement, and social services are deeply committed to the kids they serve. They are not the problem—they are the solution.
