The Vanished Children's Alliance was formed in 1980 by Georgia K. Hilgeman and other professionals and victims to address the growing need for victim parents to obtain credible, effective and compassionate assistance in the location and recovery of their missing or abducted child(ren).

As one of the country's oldest and most experienced missing children's organizations, VCA is a national 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation providing nationwide and overseas assistance to families in all categories of missing children: non-family (stranger) abductions, family abductions, and runaways.

With our national headquarters office in San Jose, California, the Vanished Children's Alliance provides critically needed direct services to families of missing children. VCA gives equal importance to abduction prevention, community outreach, training and child advocacy.

The Vanished Children's Alliance has assisted in more than 30,000 cases of missing and abducted children since 1980. Of these, we have documented that more than 90% have been found. All of our services are free of charge, as we are dedicated to keeping children safe and bringing missing children home.
