Sarah
Thirteen-year-old Sarah was living in a group home. She went out one day and never returned. No one posted on social media, put up posters around town, or made public pleas to find her. No local news reports showed her face and asked for help.
“Every single day, 58 children go missing from foster care. We can prevent this.”
–Darcy Olsen, Center for the Rights of Abused Children Founder and CEO
No one looked for Sarah because, unlike other teens, she didn’t have a loving family with a circle of friends. And not one single photo of her existed. No one knows what’s happened to Sarah.
The Center for the Rights of Abused Children passes groundbreaking reforms that prevent kids from going missing and that help to find them when they do.
The Center for the Rights of Abused Children’s “show it, share it” strategy is a blueprint for laws nationwide. We work with lawmakers across the country to require searches for missing kids like Sarah, who make up the bulk of children being trafficked. Predators think no one is looking for them. Together, we can change that.
