Parent Instructions
This section is taken from the BeyondMissing web site. Beyond Missing allows a parent to create a Missing Child flyer. During the flyer creation process, you have the option to translate the flyer into Spanish. You will be able to go back into your flyer at any time to modify the information or update the photos.
Example of a flyer created using Parent Flyer Tool:
Before You Start
Is your child a toddler? Have you searched the entire house? Toddlers can and will get into spaces that any adult would not even think about going into. Check crawl spaces, under beds, closets, and so on.
Is your child a pre-teen or teen? Have you checked with friends and their family members? Could there be some school activities that you are not aware of?
BeyondMissing recommends that you take logical, age appropriate actions to locate your missing child.
If Your Child Is Still Missing
Immediately call 911.
Contact all law enforcement (police, sheriff, state police, FBI, any adjoining jurisdictional law enforcement, and store/mall security forces).
Request that your child's case be entered into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) system.
Contact media assignment desks to inform them that your child is missing.
If you still have not located your child, BeyondMissing recommends that you contact regional or national child locater services. See our Links section.
If your child has run away, immediately contact the National Runaway Hotline (also known as the National Runaway Switchboard).
