Poster Partners Frequently Asked Questions
Q. May I alter the missing child poster
before I distribute (e.g. change the layout, add my own or organization's
phone number)?
A. No, the posters must remain in
the same format with NCMEC's toll-free number on them.
Q. How often will I receive Missing
Child Poster Alerts?
A. On average NCMEC adds 20 new
missing-child cases to its web site each week, and the majority of the
cases come from the most populous states.
Q. What does it mean if the link to the
poster is not active?
A. You are probably using a non-HTML compatible
E-mail system.
Q. Is there a limit to the number of posters I can print and
distribute?
A. There is no limit. NCMEC encourages you to print and
display as many posters as you are able to distribute and retrieve once
the child is recovered.
Q. Where should I display the posters?
A. The posters can be displayed anywhere in your community where
people will see them, but please be sure to ask for permission before placing
a poster on someone else's property.
