Family Safety

Search authoritative sex-offender registries

TruthMark deliberately does notaggregate or rehost registry data. We direct you to the official agency that maintains each registry, where the data is current, accurate, and covered by the agency's own legal disclaimers. Why we do it this way →

Primary national search

Search every U.S. jurisdiction at once on NSOPW.gov

The National Sex Offender Public Website is operated by the U.S. Department of Justice. It federates a single search across all 50 states, the District of Columbia, U.S. territories, and participating tribal jurisdictions in real time — no third-party aggregation, no cached records.

Open NSOPW.gov verification search ↗Or browse all 50 states + DC + territories →
A note before you search. Public registries don't list every person who poses a risk to children — most abuse comes from people the family already knows. Use these tools as one signal, not the only one. Family safety resources →
