CRI will provide a link on its popular consumer website (www.carpet-rug.com) to publicize the efforts of NCMEC and to provide a means of access for those interested in helping NCMEC with its mission.

"CRI and our members are extremely supportive of the task at hand and the service provided by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children," said Werner Braun, president of CRI. "This is a responsibility for all of us, and we are happy to provide this link on our website. Our hope is that anyone visiting the site will take the time to look at the photos or use the tips as a way to educate and protect their own children."
