A Child Is Missing (ACIM)

is a Fort Lauderdale-based non-profit organization founded in 1997 and was created because no community-based program existed for locating missing children, the disabled and elderly often (with Alzheimer's) during the crucial first hours of disappearance.

The Need

A child goes missing every 40 seconds in the United States. Your child has a 1 in 42 chance of going missing. We also address helping the Elderly, Alzheimer's and the Disabled.

Mission

ACIM is devoted to assisting law enforcement in the search and early safety recovery efforts of children, the elderly (often with Alzheimer's) and disabled persons and college students via a rapid-response neighborhood alert program utilizing satellite tracking and high-tech telephony systems.
