A Child Is Missing Secret Code
Why is it important to have a SECRET CODE with a child.
A Child never knows when they are going to encounter danger and it is up to you as a parent or guardian to have an escape plan for the child to fall back on and react to when needed.
Do you have a SECRET CODE?
With your child
With your spouse
With a friend
Do you have an escape plan for your child?
Friend to go to
Relative to go to
Describe your plan with you child to help others.
Is your line of communication open with your child or do you think you need help? And why?

ACIM New program School Lockdown/Evacuation
In order to meet the needs of law enforcement’s ever changing face, A Child
Is Missing Alert Program has brought to the forefront programs that can
benefit the community.
We have kept our programs simple so they are easy to adapt to general procedures. There are booklets available on all of the programs and will be sent to you upon request.
SCHOOL Lockdown/Evacuation ALERT PROGRAM
Law enforcement agencies responding to threats at elementary, middle, and high schools can use A Child Is Missing to provide valuable information not only to the neighborhoods surrounding the school, but also to specific groups of numbers provided by the school. Parents cell phone numbers, office phone numbers and home phone numbers can be entered into the A Child Is Missing database and enable law enforcement to provide emergency information and instruction to the school community. This Alert Program can serve to mitigate chaos during and after a dangerous scenario on school grounds.

A Child Is Missing Alert 1,000 calls in 60 seconds
1,000 Calls in 6O Seconds
A Child Is Missing uses a three-prong program: a telephone database, a geo-mapping system and satellite imagery. Once it has been confirmed that a child, or any vulnerable individual, is missing by the investigating officer, a call is placed to A Child Is Missing technician. All pertinent information is relayed, such as description, clothes worn, place and time last seen. The technician then uses computer-mapping technology to identify the area where the individual was last seen. An imagery satellite program is also used to increase the map-tracking accuracy to help visualize areas that may be a danger such as water or woods, or attract a wandering individual such as a mall or park. The satellite program has been credited with helping ACIM find individuals in as few as 23 minutes. The goal is to lower the average time of successful recoveries to 90 minutes. Next an individual message is recorded with the description of the child.
This alert is phoned to homes and businesses in the area where the person was last seen. The alert message asks residents to check their property and to call their local law enforcement agency at the number provided should they have any information. If a lead is obtained, the search can be expanded to that area or discontinued. ACIM has over 60 million phone numbers, (excluding unpublished numbers) and access to 181 T-1 lines. This automated phone system can send 1,000- recorded alert messages in 60 seconds. The system also records the alert on answering machines.
