Child Focus: “Never before have so many children run away from home”

Child Focus handled 1,515 new disappearance files last year, of which 1,138 were new reports of young people who ran away. For example, the number of runaway files increased by 31 percent compared to 2021. Never before have so many children run away from home or the facility where they stay, the center reports. In the context of the International Day of Missing Children, on May 25, Child Focus is again launching the awareness campaign ‘Keep Hope Alive’ so that long-term missing children are not forgotten.
