How can you find information on children who have gone missing?

The National Center of Missing and Exploited Children serves as a nationwide resource center for missing and exploited children. With their database, you can find photos and information on missing children under 18 years old, not only from Arizona, but across America. 

Families can report their child missing here, and the public can provide any tips they may have on those who are missing or of suspected exploitation.

Why are these kids missing

It is not specified why these 14 Arizona kids are missing. The National Center of Missing and Exploited Children says that a majority of the time missing children are runaways, or have been abducted by family.

But regardless of the reason behind their disappearance, these children have people who are missing them and want to bring them home. What's important is that these kids are found and brought back safely. If you have any tips -- big or small -- you think could help, call the listed law enforcement agency or 800-843-5678 (800-THE-LOST).
