enforcement in the United States, as well as abroad, on cases of child
sexual exploitation, especially Internet crimes against children.
Ms. Harris has been with NCMEC since June 2000. She began her NCMEC

NCMEC's Exploited Children Division was established in 1996 by a
mandate by the U.S. Congress and serves as a resource center for the
public, parents, and law enforcement on the issue of the sexual
exploitation of children. ECD works collaboratively with the Federal
Bureau of Investigation, U.S. Postal Service, U.S. Department of
Justice, and the U.S. Customs Service (now the Department of Homeland
Security). ECD analysts process reports received on child sexual
exploitation through the CyberTipline and disseminate the leads to
Federal, state, local, and international law enforcement agencies for
further investigation. ECD analysts also provide technical assistance
to those law enforcement agencies investigating cases of child sexual
exploitation.
