MISSING PERSONS
A
Child Is Missing (ACIM)...
is a Fort Lauderdale-based non-profit
organization founded in 1997, and was created because no
community-based program existed for locating missing children, the
disabled and elderly often (with Alzheimer's) during the crucial
first hours of disappearance. This program also fills the gap
when cases don't meet the criteria for an Amber Alert.
See The links below for
more information.
A Child goes missing every 40
seconds in the United States.
Your child has a 1 in 42 chance of going missing...
A Child Is Missing (ACIM) is devoted to assisting
law enforcement in the search and early safe recovery efforts of
children / the elderly (often with Alzheimer's) / disabled persons
and college students via a rapid-response neighborhood alert program
utilizing high-tech telephony systems.
The Elderly - Often
with Alzheimer’s and Dementia: two dreaded diseases of the
elderly. They tend to wander off and often think they are going to
go 'home'. That 'home' may be states away. They (The Elderly) tend
to walk off and in some cases they will find a body of water, this
is not good.
ACIM will make alert calls (when requested by law enforcement) to
the last seen areas, to help find these individuals who can’t make
rational decisions for themselves.
Disabled People who
have been beaten, unconscious, or are suffering from memory loss. We
will send out alert calls to find the guardian, parents, and
friends. There may be other circumstances but a phone call will
inform you if ACIM will run the case. Again, these alert calls are
requested by law enforcement only.
