                              R E P O R T

                         PURPOSE OF THE REPORT

    This report is submitted in compliance with section 3(a) of 
Pub. L. 99-87 (39 USC 3220), enacted August 9, 1985 and amended 
by Pub. L. 102-514 enacted October 24, 1992. Pub. L. 99-87 
authorizes the use of official mail as a means of disseminating 
pictures of and biographical information about missing 
children; directs the Office of Juvenile Justice and 
Delinquency Prevention, the Senate Committee on Rules and 
Administration, and the House Commission on Mailing Standards 
to prescribe guidelines, rules, and regulations for the 
executive branch of the Government, the Senate, and the House 
of Representatives, respectively, and requires such Office, 
Committee and Commission, to submit reports not later than June 
30, 1997 assessing the effectiveness of the program and making 
recommendations with respect to its termination, continuation, 
or modification. Pub. L. 99-87, as amended, expires December 
31, 1997.

                               background

    Responding to national concern about missing children, 
Congress passed the Missing Children Assistance Act of 1984, 
enacted as title IV of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency 
Prevention Act. The Act authorized a range of activities 
including the establishment of a national resource center and 
clearinghouse (the National Center for Missing and Exploited 
Children), periodic incidence studies on the numbers of missing 
children, and grants to public and private agencies to support 
recovery efforts, prevention programs and vital research on 
such subjects as the psychological consequences of abduction. 
Widespread dissemination of pictures of missing children was 
one of the techniques employed in seeking to raise the level of 
public awareness of the problem and in seeking assistance from 
the general public in locating and recovering missing children.
    In 1985 an additional step was taken. On May 22, Senator 
Howard Metzenbaum introduced S. 1195 to provide for the further 
distribution of these pictures using official mail of the 
Congress and of executive branch agencies pictures. S. 1195 
passed the Senate the same day and passed the House, with 
amendments, on July 29, 1985. It was signed by the President on 
August 9, 1985. (Pub. L. 99-87)
    Pub. L. 99-87 was amended by Pub. L. 102-514 in October 
1992. It continued the use of official mail for the 
dissemination of pictures of missing children for an additional 
five years, expiring December 31, 1997.
    The Act authorized the use of Senate mail to disseminate 
pictures of and information about missing children in 
accordance with rules and regulations to be prescribed by the 
Senate Committee on Rules and Administration and directed the 
Committee to submit a report on the effectiveness of the use of 
such mail for such purpose, together with recommendations 
relative to the continuation of such program. As amended in 
Pub. L. 102-514, the report was to be filed no later than June 
30, 1997, six months before the date of termination of the Act.
    The text of the Act as amended in 1987 and the text of the 
regulations prescribed by the Committee on Rules and 
Administration are set forth in Appendices A and B, 
respectively, in this report. The policy followed by the 
National Center in the compilation and selection of missing 
children's pictures for all press, other media, and private 
sector distribution channels is in Appendix C.

         description of operation of the program in the senate

    The regulations prescribed by the Committee on Rules and 
Administration provide for the printing of a picture of a 
missing child on all ``self-mailers,'' except town meeting 
notices prepared by the Senate Correspondence Management System 
(CMS). Self-mailers include newsletters, which represent well 
over 50 percent of all Senate mail. Throughout a week, a 
picture of one child is printed on all such mail, unless the 
Senator for whom the mail is being prepared, specifically 
requests no picture. Pictures are printed using the National 
Center for Missing and Exploited Children Center's scheduled 
photo distribution program. Printing on self-mailers is a low 
cost and effective means of rapid dissemination because of the 
volume of such mail and the speed with which it is processed. 
The flow of mail through the Senate print facility is not 
disrupted, because pictures areprinted on the address panel at 
the time the text of the mail is printed, only one picture is used on 
all mail for an entire week, and town meeting notices, which are 
extremely time-sensitive, and window envelopes are not included in the 
program. Currently, the National Center designates pictures of missing 
children for printing on Senate (and other official) mail who have been 
abducted by either known (family or friends), or unknown individuals.
    Including non-custodial parental kidnappings in the Senate 
program is a potential risk. Even though the National Center 
verifies through police reports and affidavits that non-
custodial parents have, in fact, wrongfully abducted their 
children and are being sought by law enforcement authorities, 
these parents often feel that their actions are based on 
natural rights and are in the best interests of their children. 
They would understandably resent anyone or any process that 
would deprive them of their children. They might believe that 
the Senate mail program is ``taking sides'' in a family 
squabble. Nevertheless, non-custodial parental kidnappings are 
wrongful acts, are potentially harmful to the child, are 
substantial in number, and cannot be disregarded.

                                 costs

    During the five year period between June 1992 and April 
1997, a total of 41,135,306 self-mailers bearing pictures of 
missing children were printed and mailed by the Senate Service 
Department. The unit costs of production for self-mailers was 
approximately $.00018 per 50,000 copies. The total cost for the 
five years, was approximately $7404.36. The costs include 
camera or composition time, equipment, and program management 
time. Including a picture with the other material that is 
printed does not measurably decrease the life of the equipment 
used.

                                results

    To date, there is no evidence that a child has been 
recovered as a direct result of the child's picture appearing 
on a piece of Senate mail. Nevertheless, the National Center 
believes that the widespread dissemination of such pictures on 
Senate mail produces approximately 30 to 40 leads per photo 
used. The use of Senate and other official mail keeps the 
general public aware of the problem of missing children. A 
letter from Mr. Ernest E. Allen, President of the National 
Center for Missing and Exploited Children, dated June 3, 1997, 
is set forth in Appendix D. An attachment to the communication 
setting forth the names of 492 missing children recovered 
through pictures, the type of abduction, and the location of 
the picture directly instrumental in the recovery, also is 
included in Appendix D.

                            recommendations

    The Committee recommends that program be reauthorized for a 
period of five years and that the Committee on Rules and 
Administration again be required to report its findings and 
recommendations to the Senate six months before its expiration.
    The Committee urges every Senator to refrain from photo 
distribution that is not in compliance with the Committee's 
regulations. The Committee is aware that some Senators would 
like to have a picture of a missing child from their State 
printed on their mail. If this occurred, no child would receive 
any publicity outside that State. The purpose of the program, 
is to provide nationwide publicity for a missing child. 
According to the National Center, children, always have been 
located in a different State from which they were abducted. 
Locating missing children from non-contiguous states, however, 
decreases substantially because of distance. Senators 
representing these States may use either the pictures provided 
by the Center, or, working with the Senate Service Department 
and the National Center, request pictures of children from 
their respective States. Participation in the program as 
established, improves the possibility of locating children.
    The Service Department or the National Center will notify 
Senators when a child from their State is being featured on a 
mailing. The National Center considers geographic diversity in 
determining its photograph publication schedule (See Appendix 
C.), so that all Senators may participate.

                               APPENDIX C

 Policy of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children for 
  Compilation and Selection of Missing Children's Pictures for Media/
                  Press and Private Sector Initiatives

    The Policy that follows is fully utilized by the staff of 
the National Center for compilation/selection/distribution of 
missing children's pictures for ALL media/press and private 
sector initiatives. It assists in basing judgement in fact and 
making more consistent the way in which children are selected. 
Any deviation from this protocol requires the prior approval of 
the Director of Case Management and waiver by the Vice 
President/COO.
    1. Children selected for distribution should represent a 
broad cross-spectrum of the entire country by sex, race, age 
and geographical region.
    2. There MUST be a current N.C.I.C. Missing Person File 
entry on EACH child selected (and/or C.P.I.C. for Canada).
    3. There MUST be on file at the National Center ALL 
pertinent bio-information considered standard for our Hotline 
system to handle sightings, including an original photograph of 
the Child and a signed parental permission form.
    4. There MUST be on file at the National Center a Certified 
Copy of any felony Warrant (custodial interference or related 
crime) against the non-custodial familial abductor, especially 
in all such cases originating in CA, IA, MA, NM, NV, SC, SD, 
and UT. Alternative are (1.) a NLETS message from the law 
enforcement agency on the case stating the Warrant Number, name 
of the subject of the Warrant and the charge, and name of the 
custodial parent, or (2.) a signed letter/form stating same 
from the prosecutor or law enforcement officer, or (3.) a 
printed copy of the N.C.I.C. Wanted Person File entry on the 
offending parent. (The NCMECX ORI for NCIC/NLETS is VA00709W.)
    5. Priority should be given children never used before in/
by that particular medium to assure fairness. Children selected 
having been used before in/by that particular medium should 
receive lower priority.
    6. Priority should be given to cases occurring most 
recently and to cases in which there have been substantial 
active leads and investigational contact with/through our Case 
Management system. (Cases appearing to have investigational 
momentum wherein results may be forthcoming should continue to 
be proactively assisted.) The Director of Case Management may 
so determine.
    7. ``Shelf-life'' of printed/published/taped public display 
should be limited to 90 days for all types of cases.
    8. ALL photos aired/published must indicate name of child 
and type of case on/in each photo or photo/bio. [Non-Family 
Abduction, Family Abduction, Endangered Runaway, ``Lost/
Injured/Otherwise missing'']. Also, the general masthead of 
``Endangered Missing'' may be used.

   Communication from the National Center for Missing and Exploited 
                                Children

                                National Center for
                            Missing and Exploited Children,
                                       Arlington, VA, June 3, 1997.
Hon. John Warner,
Chairman, Committee on Rules and Administration,
U.S. Senate, Washington, DC.
    Dear Senator Warner: In January 1986 the National Center 
for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) began working with 
the U.S. Senate Rules Committee and the Senate Service 
Department to implement S. 1195 which allowed for the placement 
of missing children photographs on federal mail. The concept 
was simple: if we could reach as many Americans as possible 
with the best possible images and information, we felt that we 
could generate leads and bring children home.
    I am proud to report to you that our national photo 
distribution program is working. One in every seven of the 
children featured in the NCMEC photo distribution program has 
been recovered as a direct result of the photograph.
    The U.S. Senate truly helped to launch a movement. Thanks 
to your leadership, today millions of Americans are looking at 
the pictures of missing children, and citizens are calling the 
NCMEC hotline in record numbers. In the past decade NCMEC's 
annual call volume has increased from 50,000 to more than 
107,000 in 1996.
    And, we have come a long way from the milk carton. Today, 
NCMEC's photo distribution effort involves more than five 
hundred private and public sector photo partners, including:
          Missing Child Bulletin boards at 2,800 Wal-Marts. 
        Ninety million people a week shop at Wal-Mart.
          ADVO ``Have You Seen Me?'' mailers, which reach 73 
        million homes each week.
          Pizza Hut ``Deliver Me Home'' multimedia kiosks in 
        airports, shopping malls, and other high traffic 
        locations.
          Bulletin boards in every federal building. NCMEC 
        transmits posters to the General Services 
        Administration and the U.S. Postal Service via the 
        Internet.
          NCMEC's Internet website, www.missingkids.com, 
        currently accessed by 220,000 people each day, enabling 
        people around the world to see the photos of every 
        missing child in NCMEC's database.
    And there are many more.
    NCMEC truly believes that somebody knows where these 
children are and what has happened to them. Through photo 
distribution, we provide leads for police, hope for families, 
and more importantly, we are bringing missing children home as 
never before.
    Since 1984 NCMEC has handled 1,068,291 calls for service 
through its twenty-four hour, toll-free hotline--1(800)THE 
LOST. For the first time in April of 1997, NCMEC averaged 800 
calls per day. Through the first quarter of 1997, 125,750 of 
the total hotline calls came from average Americans who had 
seen a photo, thought they had information about a missing 
child, and called us with a lead. Many calls came from well 
meaning people whose information did not turn out to be 
helpful. Yet, we want them to call. Americans are more aware, 
and are reaching out as never before. With your support, we are 
reaching into millions of homes, seeking that one person who 
knows.
    Since our photo distribution system began in October 1985, 
196,511 print photographs/biographies of 3,311 different 
missing children have been distributed nationwide. 492 children 
are known to have been recovered as a result of NCMEC photo 
distribution nationally--a ratio of 1/7. In 389 of those cases 
the lead itself directly resulted in the child's location and 
return. In 103 of the cases, the lead set in motion the 
sequence of events which led to the child's recovery. In those 
cases the lead was used by NCMEC case analysts, working with 
law enforcement, to locate and return the child.
    During the first quarter of 1997, NCMEC Case Managers 
completed 117 new cases for photo distribution; 8 new companies 
were added to the photo distribution network; 3,996 pictures of 
792 different missing children were displayed throughout the 
country by 330 private agencies; and 90 children were located 
whose pictures were distributed (four deceased). Currently, 
NCMEC has 817 missing child photographs and biographies on 
CompuServe, American Online, GEnie, Prodigy, and the Internet. 
In breaking cases, time is the enemy. Today, private sector 
technology enables NCMEC to capture and disseminate a 
photograph around the world in minutes. Yet, the success of our 
program is its diversity and its ability to penetrate into 
every home.
    In thousands of cases, the child has been missing for 
years, and we must keep the case alive. A powerful tool in 
long-term missing child cases is computerized age progression. 
Our photo distribution system also enables us to disseminate 
``aged'' photos of long-term missing children, prodding the 
public to look at the child as he or she would be today. 
NCMEC's age progression artists have ``aged'' the photos of 532 
long-term missing children, with 122 of those children 
recovered safely. In another 22 cases, NCMEC uses its imaging 
technology to perform facial reconstructions from morgue photos 
of unidentified deceased children. Those images were then 
circulated and led to the successful identification of 11 
children.
    We are proud of the progress. Ultimately, all of our 
progress is the result of leadership. Much of that leadership 
came from the United States and your willingness to become a 
catalyst for change. Most than a decade ago the U.S. Senate 
made a commitment to use the federal mail to reach out to 
millions of Americans with these photos, and to ask 
constituents to look at the pictures and to help. Your efforts 
paved the way for a program which displays missing child photos 
in federal buildings, and prodded many federal agencies to 
become involved in other ways.
    To ensure that all children whose photographs are released 
by NCMEC are indeed missing, and represent cases which law 
enforcement agencies and parents feel could benefit from such 
an effort, our criteria are very strict. Thus, not all children 
whose cases are on file with NCMEC will be made available for 
photo distribution.
    Although we cannot prove that a child has been located as a 
director result of the Senate mail program, the response has 
been excellent. The dissemination of a photo always produces 
calls and leads. Our estimate on leads produced by Senate mail 
has grown to 30-40 leads per photo used. The particular 
strength of the Senate program is that when constituents 
receive mailings from their Senators, they read them. They see 
a child's photograph, make a mental note that a child is 
missing and that their Senator has asked for their help in 
locating the child. This enhances the possibility that this 
individual will remember the child's face and call NCMEC if he 
or she sees anything that might lead to the recovery of the 
child.
    Our callers do not always identify the sources of the photo 
and we only count a child as having been recovered as a 
``direct result'' of the photograph when it is clear and we can 
prove it. Thus, we are confident that there have been 
recoveries resulting from Senate mail. However, we cannot prove 
it with sufficient certainty to report.
    As we ask you to continue this vital program, there are 
several areas in which we seek your help:
          We would welcome broader participation. The more 
        Senators who participate, and the more widely these 
        photos are disseminated, the greater the likelihood of 
        the safe recovery of a child.
          With the enormous impact of NCMEC's new Internet 
        wedsite, we encourage Senators to link to NCMEC's site. 
        Thus, your constituents can more easily find and 
        explore our entire database of missing children.
          We hope that Senators will consider using photos of 
        missing children not exclusively from their home 
        states. For example, using our case analysis process, 
        we are often able to identify leads suggesting a 
        child's possible location. We attempt those areas with 
        the photo, increasing the likelihood of the child's 
        safe recovery. While we recognize the problem 
        associated with featuring a child who is not a resident 
        of the Senator's state, NCMEC would like to be able to 
        make requests of Senators to use photographs of 
        children ``believed to be in their states.'' Further, 
        in many cases the missing child is no longer in the 
        home state, so broader dissemination is essential.
          We ask that you encourage more Senators to use 
        computer aged photos of long term missing children from 
        their home states. Often, families of long term missing 
        children feel angry, forgotten, that no one cares, and 
        that no one is looking any more. It is essential that 
        we do everything possible to keep these cases alive, 
        provide hope for the families, new leads for law 
        enforcement, and we are proving every day that we can 
        bring many more of these children home.
    The National Center of Missing and Exploited Children is 
deeply grateful for your confidence and leadership. Through 
taking the best images and information possible, and reaching 
the public in a compelling, effective manner, together we are 
bringing missing children home. Thanks to your leadership, 
today millions of Americans are looking at the pictures. I hope 
you will allow this vital effort to continue.
    If your have questions or we can provide additional 
information, please do not hesitate to let me know.
            Sincerely,
                                               Ernie Allen,
                                                         President.
