Reported Cases Of U.S. International Parental Child Abduction Rate Drops By 15% Second Year In Row

Since the I CARE Foundation commenced operations, reported cases of outbound international parental child abduction statistics demonstrate that there has been a miraculous 15% drop in international kidnappings for two consecutive years (fiscal year ending 2011 and 2012). The outreach of advocacy groups such as the I CARE Foundation along with increased efforts by the U.S. government's Office of Childrens Issues has led the charge to combat abduction that may be best described as a run-away train illuminated by 30 previous years of skyrocketing abduction rate. Outreach about the warning signs and risk factors of abduction combined with a strong effort to educate the courts on the complex legal dynamics of parental abduction, and, new laws and policies geared to protect children are making a difference. Despite great strides being made, a somber mood still exists due to the poor rate of children being returned home, which is anticipated to be around 10% when considering reported cases of abduction and expected unreported cases of abduction.

The I CARE Foundation

The I CARE Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to preventing international child abduction and trafficking. The foundation has been very effective in working to have new state and federal laws and policies implemented, or existing policies modified, geared toward protecting children of abduction. Since commencement of the I CARE Foundation's operations, the reported number of international parental child abductions originating from the United States has declined by over 15% per year during fiscal years 2011 and 2012, after nearly 30 years of abduction growth. Though focused on research and new policy implementation, the I CARE Foundation has played key roles in reuniting dozens of internationally abducted children while preventing many more cross-border abductions.
