The Wandering Report

What happens in the first hour?

If your child, or an adult you care for, has ever wandered or left a safe place, we would like to learn from you. How long it took to notice, how long to find them, and what you wish you had had.

Your answers are anonymous. We do not ask for your name or email with them, and we publish them only as group totals in the report. 12 questions, about 4 minutes. Every question is optional.

If someone is missing right now, call 911. If remembering is hard, you can call or text 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, US) any time.

Question 1: Your country and state or province
Question 2: Your child's age range
Question 3: How many times did your child wander or leave a safe place in the past 12 months?
Question 4: For the most recent time: where did they leave from?
Question 5: How long until you noticed they were gone?
