Is NCMEC John Walsh s organization?
After the abduction and murder of their son, Adam, in 1981, John and Revé Walsh became effective advocates on behalf of missing children s issues. Mrs. Walsh serves on the NCMEC Board of Directors and Mr. Walsh serves on the Board s Chief Executive Officers Council and National Advisory Board, and acts as an NCMEC spokesperson when his schedule allows. Their hard work and determination helped to create NCMEC which now serves as the national clearinghouse for information on missing children and the prevention of child victimization. Since 1984, NCMEC has worked with law enforcement on more than 83,500 missing child cases, resulting in the recovery of more than 66,800 children.
