A program of the National Center
for Missing & Exploited Children®, the goal of Take 25 is to
heighten awareness about children’s safety issues. With a focus
on prevention, the campaign encourages parents, guardians, and other
trusted-adult role models to spend time talking to kids and teaching
them ways to be safer.
Take 25 was started to commemorate National Missing Children’s Day on May
25th. First proclaimed by President Ronald Reagan in 1983, the day serves as
an annual reminder to the nation to renew efforts to reunite missing children
with their families, remember those who are still missing, and make child protection
a national priority. It’s a time of reflection and renewed hope for millions
of families in communities across the country.
Get involved with the Take
25 campaign by hosting an
event in your area or distributing Take 25 child safety materials in
your community.
Make time to talk about child safety.
