Family abduction is the most prevalent form of child abduction in the United States. Regardless of the abductor's motive, it is an illegal act that has lasting consequences for the abducted child, the custodial parent and the abducting family member. Written with the help of six persons who have experienced family abduction, this book features valuable insights from a firsthand perspective. It is designed to provide the searching family, law enforcement and mental health professionals with strategies to build a comprehensive, child-centred approach to recovery and healing, and to support victims subjected to the crime of family abduction.
