Kevin Branzetti, Co-Founder & CEO of the National Child Protection Task Force shares four ways you can protect your children from exploitation today.

Find + Listen + Help

The National Child Protection Task Force responds directly to the child exploitation crisis through rapid response law enforcement case assistance and Missing Child Rescue Operations, closing gaps left by overwhelmed systems and under-resourced agencies.

Through rapid response case assistance and Missing Child Rescue Operations, we work alongside local, state, and federal partners to uncover trafficking networks, locate vulnerable children, and help strengthen community-based systems of protection.

Every operation is designed to disrupt trafficking, locate children in danger, and create a pathway toward safety and healing.

Whether we’re investigating suspicious online activity or building a collaborative response across jurisdictions, our goal remains the same: making sure vulnerable children don't continue to fall through the cracks.
