Reporting Wandering Emergencies
If your child with autism has wandered and is missing:
- Report wandering emergencies to law enforcement immediately by calling 911.
- After calling 911, you can also make a report to Autism Speaks partners, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) by calling the NCMEC Hotline: 1-800-THE-LOST (1-800-843-5678)
Prevention is important. View our wandering prevention resources for parents and first responders.
