Help find missing children & loved ones
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children is asking for your help. Because truckers are constantly on the road throughout the United States, they can be a terrific resource in helping locate missing children. In an effort to maintain an up-to-date listing of missing children, The Trucker is providing this link to the center's Web site. On it you will find current photos and information about missing children, and who you should notify if you believe you've seen a missing child.
To view the latest list of missing children, simply CLICK HERE.
Once at the site, you'll have the option of viewing all the missing children, or all of the missing children for a particular state. We encourage you to be a frequent visitor to the center's site.
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and The Trucker thank you for your participation. With help from people like you, NCMEC has been able to bring some of these children home safe to their families and loved ones.

18 Wheel Angels FAQs:
What is an 18 Wheel Angel?
An 18 Wheel Angel is a compassionate person, who, while traveling the highways, helps to locate missing loved ones by placing posters of them along the way.
What would I need to do?
Project Jason, the sponsor organization, will feature a printable poster of a missing person on their web site, which changes bi-monthly. 18 Wheel Angels come to this web site page and print posters of the missing person to take on their next trip and post in businesses along their route.
What is Required of me to be an 18 Wheel Angel?
Participating drivers need access to a computer, printer, E-mail, and the Internet. Drivers may print 5 or more posters to distribute on their route. They will report bi-monthly via E-mail to Project Jason the number of posters distributed per campaign.
Why should I become an 18 Wheel Angel?
The potential for success of the program is unlimited. Remember, the key to resolution in these cases is public awareness. With over 97,000 active missing person cases in the U.S., these families need your help. The poster that you lovingly place may be the one that reunites a family!
Why do I need to sign up and report in?
We want to provide stats on the web page showing how many posters were placed. A successful program with statistical information can help increase the number of participants and thus increase the odds of locating a missing person.
