Pass It On Education Resources: Your Forethought May Contribute To Finding & Saving An Abducted Child
When I was in the sixth and seventh grade I lived by a mall in Hollywood FL when and where Adam Walsh was abducted and later killed. His dad, John Walsh, went on to create "America's Most Wanted." Since that time, I have had a keen understanding of the dangers of child abduction. It is a more common problem than we'd like to believe.
- 450,000 children run away each year
- 300,000 children are abducted each year by family members
- More than 58,000 children are abducted every year by non-family members
Accordingly, I found the following program worthy of note. Here is a bit more about the program in a letter to administrators from the Texas Commissioner of Education.
