“I cannot think of anything
that would improve the quality of Team Adam’s service
to this office….All the members that responded were
very professional and easy to work with. They were able to
provide us with expertise that we did not have….”

Response
to Katrina
On August 29, 2005, Hurricane
Katrina slammed into the Gulf Coast,
separating many families.
Thirty TACs were deployed to the affected areas to help locate displaced
children and reunite them with their families. As a result of NCMEC’s
efforts, the last of the 5,192 children displaced by the storm was reunited
with her family in Houston, TX in March 2006.
