According to statistics from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, the majority (98 percent) of missing children are found and returned home or located. Of the remaining 2 percent, only a small number (around 1 percent) are the victims of non-family abductions, which could include cases where a child is killed or sold into slavery. The majority of missing children who are not located or returned home are likely to be runaways from institutions such as foster care or group homes.
