Established in 2005 The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) formed an advisory group of external and internal constituents on prevention strategic planning following an internal review of its prevention work by NCMEC Board Member Cordelia Anderson in 2005. Quickly the organization saw the added value of an independent Coalition of equal members for information sharing and collaboration. The National Coalition to Prevent Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation was established shortly thereafter. Accomplishments

"Public policy based on evidence and inspired by innovation can serve as a powerful cornerstone to shifting the individual, cultural, societal, and institutional norms we practice to keep children safe from sexual exploitation. It is our job as advocates for children to think creatively and employ science to bring about the shifts in public policy necessary for the prevention of the sexual exploitation of children." - Alisa Klein, MAIPS, Alisa Klein Consulting
