The Solution

Our vision is a world where no child is ever forgotten because of geopolitical borders or lack of resources.

We do this through

Funding DNA programs

Implementing databases in partner countries

Government & NGO network building

Why DNA Programs?

Sustainable

While physical characteristics change, DNA stays the same. No matter the time apart, biological relation can always be scientifically proven and traced.

Efficient & Effective

DNA identification is science-based, trusted globally and can prove a match beyond irreconcilable doubt.

Deters Traffickers

Empowering countries with DNA databases creates a major obstacle for child traffickers who currently rely on lack of evidence, gaps in the system and lengthy investigation processes.

Evidence & Data

Trends from DNA databases are instrumental when advocating for proof of parentage laws. This prevents abducted children from entering the adoption process or crossing federal borders without a biological relative.

DNA Programs

Returned.org operates as a bridge between victims and the genetic technologies that can solve unanswered questions.

Network Building

Governments and NGOs are doing this work globally, but are not often working together. We care about fostering the relationships and maintaining the systems that reunite families and protect children at risk of exploitation.
