About Find the Children

Find the Children is a nonprofit organization dedicated to finding missing children. It was founded in 1983 by the late television producer, Linda Otto. Linda launched Find the Children to promote communication between local and federal law enforcement, the media, and the parents of abducted children.

Linda produced the film, “Adam,” which aired on television in 1983. The movie portrayed the story about the kidnapping and murder of Adam, the son of her friend John Walsh. At the end of the movie, photos of missing children played on the screen. As a result, several of the children were found. This was the first time media was used to find missing children.

You can watch the original movie “Adam” (1983) and the sequel “Adam His Song Continues” (1986) on many of the Streaming services.
