Introduction

Almost every day in this country a child is abducted by a non-family member. Often the abductor is a child molester.

Featured review

Still Missing is a call to action to see the risk signs and intervene early in the lives of potential sexual predators

Synopsis

Still Missing approaches this subject via the parents of four children who were taken from their families. Through their stories we learn not only about their grief, but also about how police and communities should respond to reports of missing children, how to recognize and report a missing child, and maybe most importantly, how these crimes may be prevented by early intervention and treatment of juvenile sex offenders.

Reviews

Still Missing is not a Hard Copy roughshod treatment of a highly emotional issue. On the contrary, it's an informative, compassionate, and ultimately activist approach. Highly recommended.
