Both National Missing Children's Day and International Missing Children's Day are observed on May 25 each year as a reminder for raising awareness about the issue of child abduction, missing children and child exploitation. Since 2000, LexisNexis® Risk Solutions has partnered with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children® (NCMEC) to support the ADAM™ Program to help locate missing children as quickly as possible.
For over 25 years, the ADAM Program has helped the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in their efforts to bring home missing children quickly and safely. The 2025 ADAM Program Impact & Highlights Infographic spotlights our ongoing support and commitment to SDG 16 Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions protecting children.
