Texas Center for the Missing

Texas Center for the Missing (TCM) is a Houston-based nonprofit and is the Amber Alert provider for the 14-county Houston-Galveston region.  TCM offers crisis intervention, prevention, and community education services related to child abductions, runaways, internet lures, and endangered adults.  To decrease the number of missing children, we at Texas Center for the Missing know that children and families need to be educated about how to remain safe, law enforcement needs to be trained on how and when to activate local Amber Alerts AND Silver Alerts, and the community at large needs to be aware of the painful reality faced by searching families.  Since its founding in 2000, TCM has directly served more than 512,200 children and families.  In addition, TCM has trained 8,700 law enforcement officers and provided assistance in more than 3,200 missing persons cases.  We are at the ready to activate community resources 24/7 to get a missing at-risk child or endangered adult home quickly and safely.  Your support directly affects our ability to serve the Greater Houston community with the best and most time efficient resources available.
