Missing Children's Clearinghouse
The mission of the Missing Children Clearinghouse is to receive and distribute information on missing children to local law enforcement agencies, school districts, state and federal agencies, and the public. In 1989, the Oregon legislature mandated that OSP establish and maintain a missing children clearinghouse.

The goal of the Missing Children Clearinghouse is to streamline the system, serving child victims and their families by providing assistance to law enforcement agencies and the public.

Tips & Tools
ID Kits
The Clearinghouse is pleased to provide child identification kits free of charge to the public. The blank kit includes an area for a picture, fingerprints, dental records, physical information, and a DNA sample. Parents fill out the kit and keep it in their home. During the first hours a child is missing, it is vital to have this information available so law enforcement is able to locate the child as soon as possible. Funding for the kits is provided each year from the proceeds of a golf tournament (Annual Oregon State Police Missing Children Benefit). Since 1999, the clearinghouse has been able to purchase over 70,000 ID kits that have been distributed throughout Oregon. If you would like to have a kit sent to you, please call 503-934-0188 or toll free outside Salem at 1-800-282-7155. You may also email your request to judy.hayes@state.or.us The kits are free of charge! The kits may also be ordered in limited quantities for community and service groups, clubs, schools, etc.
