CyberTipline

The internet has created an exciting new world of information and communication for anyone with access to online services. While this technology offers unparalleled opportunities for children and adults to learn about the world we live in, it has also had an immeasurable impact on the sexual exploitation of children, specially the distribution of images of children.

In order to help Law Enforcement, the National Center created the CyberTipline. This is a congressionally mandated reporting system that takes the guess work out of which legal authority to contact when wanting to make a report of suspected incidents of child sexual exploitation. Since its launch in 1998, the line has received over 400,000 reports which have led to innumerable arrests and prosecutions worldwide. Now the National Center has made it easier for you to make these reports online.
