Welcome to the website of the Ohio Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.

The Ohio Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force is a federal anti-crime initiative funded by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. It is a collaboration of city, county, state and federal law enforcement authorities across Ohio whose mission is to identify, arrest and prosecute individuals who: (1) use the Internet to lure minors into illicit sexual relationships; or (2) use the Internet to produce, distribute or solicit child pornography.

Inside our site you will find important information that can keep you, your family and your friends safe from the very real dangers of Internet child sexual exploitation. We’ve included safety information for parents and kids, information about our task force members and their work, an list of completed and ongoing prosecutions, information and photographs of convicted Internet sex offenders in Ohio, information on our school outreach and education program, and links to sites where you can learn more about Internet safety.

We’ve also included a direct link to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) where you can immediately report suspected online child sexual exploitation.

Please surf the Internet safely, and don’t hesitate to contact us if we can be of further help.
