Twenty five years ago, Soul Asylum's "Runaway Train" music video featured images of missing children and helped close 21 cases. If one video could recover that many children, how many can we find with the power of new technology and social media? For the 25th anniversary of the song, we reimagined "Runaway Train" with new artists and a dynamic music video that updates itself with missing children from the NCMEC database based on a user's location. That means more missing children in front of more people in more relevant places. Watch the making of the video and visit RunawayTrain25.com to watch the full video featuring missing children from your state. Watch #RunawayTrain25 and help us bring home #Missingkids.

NCMEC is committed to our mission to find missing children, reduce child sexual exploitation and prevent further victimization, even during the Covid-19 pandemic.

On June 9, 1995, Morgan Nick was abducted from a Little League game in Alma, Arkansas. We've released a new age-progression image created by NCMEC forensic artists showing what she may look like today at age 31.

NCMEC provides safety and prevention resources for families and professionals focusing on child abduction, child sexual exploitation, and internet safety.

This module provides a general overview of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's history, programs and what we can do to assist law enforcement, child serving professionals and the public in making the world a safer place for children.
