Fulfilling Our Mission

For the past 26 years, the National Law Center has been protecting children from sexual exploitation by training and equipping Law Enforcement Officers and prosecutors across America with the most cutting edge investigative strategies to prevent, detect, and successfully prosecute crimes against children, especially online luring and technology-facilitated crime.
