What the Polly Klaas Foundation does to help keep children safe...

The Polly Klaas® Foundation is a national nonprofit that helps find missing children, prevents children from going missing, and promotes laws like Amber Alert that help keep children safe.

We have helped more than 6,500 families of missing children, counseling them on ways to find their children and work with law enforcement. We make and distribute posters of missing children for these families, and have a national eVolunteer force that distributes posters of missing children in their communities. Our hotline has been answered 24/7 since 1993.

We publish and distribute child safety information to people around the world. Our free Child Safety Kit and Internet Safety Kit can be ordered or downloaded online.

We also promote child safety legislation like Amber Alerts.

You can help too! I hope you will stop Squidoo surfing for just a few short minutes? Take a moment to become aware of horrifying problem that not only plagues the United States, but the entire world. This problem is not a new problem, but a problem that is escalating, and becoming worst year after year.... What is this problem?

 The problem of children being abducted, taken from their loved ones, and the very life they have come to know on this earth.  Most  never to be seen or heard from again.  As a rule I make all efforts to keep my Squidoo lenses light, and fun. I don't feel one has to become overly graphic to get a point across.

Unfortunately with the subject of child abuse, and or child abduction, Its hard not to be graphic. Children around the world are being not only being abducted, but exploded for the sick pleasures of an ever growing minority.

 Children are defenseless when it comes to taking the necessary measures to stop these predators.  We as adults however can initiate measures to educate our children about the problems they could someday face, at the hands of a stranger. We can also help put safe guards in place, such as the Amber Alert system, by  supporting organizations like the Polly Klaas Foundation.
