OJJDP's National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) has launched a free online tool to support victims of online child sexual exploitation called Take It Down.
This platform helps users remove online sexually explicit photos and videos taken of them while under 18 years old. The initiative includes a public service announcement, produced by NCMEC, that will appear on television and online platforms that youth frequently visit. Users may remain anonymous while using the service.
