An up-to-date photograph can save a child’s life

Smilesafe ID cardTomorrow is National Missing Children’s Day. According to a 1999 study, over 2,000 children are reported missing on a daily basis. The National Center for Missing and Exploited children (NCMEC) says, “One of the most important tools for law enforcement to use in the case of a missing child is an up-to-date, good-quality photograph.” Lifetouch School Portraits, in partnership with the NCMEC, are offering the Smilesafe Kids program which includes two free ID cards for each child photographed at participating schools. Find out more about what you can do to help at the NCMEC’s website missingkids.com.
