Every day, more than 1,100 children go missing in the US (424,000 children annually). We know that the chances of finding a missing child increase when more people are on the lookout - especially in the first few hours. That’s why Facebook launched an AMBER Alerts Program a few years ago in partnership with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. Since the program launched, there have been hundreds of AMBER Alerts issued on Facebook globally.
