 When a young child goes missing, one of the first things you've got to do is call 911 so law enforcement officers can respond and help locate them. In a frightening situation like this, it can be difficult to get organized and to give an organized description to law enforcement. The FBI has created an app to help with that called FBI Child ID. When you first open the app, it gives you the option to add a child. From there, you can add a recent photo of your child, then their name, address, phone number, and other vital information. You can also add descriptions of other identifying characteristics such as scars or birthmarks, and also add photos of those. There's a spot on the app to add your local law enforcement-preferred email. You want to leave that blank. If your child goes missing, hit send in the app and it will automatically generate an email with all of your child's information and photo attached. From there, simply add the email address of the officer with whom you're in contact and they'll get all that information. You can add multiple children, and it's also password protected so that in case you lose your phone, your child's information will be protected. It's important to note that simply entering your child's information into the app will not send it to the FBI or to law enforcement until you generate that email and send it. It's important to have your child's photo and information in the app ahead of time so that if they do go missing, you'll have everything that you need and be able to get it to law enforcement immediately.
