Child Abduction: Patterns, Profiles and Prevention
Course Description
Coverage of child abduction is often reactionary, focused on a specific case, and leaves the audience feeling helpless to protect. This session highlights the academic study and learning around the topic of Child Abduction with an intentional focus around patterns that emerge, profiles of abductors and targets, and replicable prevention strategies. This session intends to move past the shock value fear and into what is known about these specific crimes against children.
