Missing Children Poster Display Instructions
Please display this poster prominently on bulletin boards in retail lobbies of main post offices,
classified stations, and branches. Operators of contract postal units may display this poster at
their option.
Companion posters, authorized for display on bulletin boards maintained by employee
organizations, appear periodically in The Postal Record, a publication for members of the National
Association of Letter Carriers.
This poster is published in cooperation with the National Center for Missing and Exploited
Children, the United States Department of Justice, and the National Association of Letter Carriers.
Information appearing on this poster is selected solely by NCMEC.
In addition to Postal Bulletin updates, NCMEC distributes information via broadcast fax.
Notification of newly reported missing children is sent to designated district "Missing Children"
coordinators at fax numbers provided by district managers. Within 24 hours of receipt of a
facsimile Missing Children poster, district coordinators should distribute copies to all postal
facilities in their districts. Missing Children posters are to be displayed for 30 days in post office
lobbies, workroom floor areas, and other postal facilities, unless notification is received (from
NCMEC) to remove a particular poster sooner. The broadcast fax network is used to distribute
posters and information in only the most urgent cases of missing and exploited children. This
system supplements, but does not replace, the missing children information in this Postal Bulletin.
Missing Children posters are available to the U.S. Postal Service only as described above. If
postal employees are contacted by individuals or local agencies about displaying a sign or poster
of a missing child in local post offices, the individual or agency should be politely informed that the
U.S. Postal Service displays only those posters provided by NCMEC, because it has been
designated by the U.S. Department of Justice to be the national clearinghouse and resource
center for missing and exploited children. The individual or agency should then be referred to
NCMEC at 1-800-843-5678.
