Of that number, 200,000 are abducted by family members, and 58,000 are abducted by non-family members. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children is based in Alexandria; their toll-free, 24-hour hotline is 1-800-THE-LOST. More information is available at their website: www.missingkids.com.
