About Child Find Ontario

Since 1984, Child Find Ontario, a not-for-profit charitable organization, has participated in the search and prevention of missing children. We are recognized by the RCMP National Missing Children's Services and affiliated with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in Washington. Child Find Ontario consists of many police-screened volunteers across Ontario. Our volunteers are responsible for the delivery of our programs and services that have been strategically designed to reduce the incidences of missing children and develop awareness across Ontario. Child Find Ontario does not receive any operational funding from the government nor are we a United Way agency. Our programs and services are offered for free through the generous support we obtain from our corporate sponsors, community groups, foundations and private donors. We do not solicit door-to-door.

Our mandate is to:

• Assist in the search for missing children and youth (to age 16)
• To provide assistance and support to families affected by the trauma of a missing child.
• To increase awareness of the problem of missing children and youth
• To educate the public on ways to prevent and reduce the incidence of missing children
• To refer families to professional services where relevant
• To advocate for the rights of children
