The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said it launched the effort, “Operation Volunteer Strong,” in an attempt to track down 240 missing kids, news station WVLT reported.
With help from the US Marshals Service and the Department of Children’s Services, officers were able to find 150 of the children, ranging in age from 3 to 17, the outlet reported.
The circumstances surrounding their cases range from runaways to kids who had been at the center of custody disputes, authorities said.
They’re investigating whether three of the children were sex-trafficking victims.
Authorities are also still working to find the other 90 missing children in the system.
“This work is transformational, we cannot stop. And there is nothing more worthwhile,” Tennessee DCS Commissioner Jennifer Nichols said at a press conference, news station WZTV reported.
US Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) of Knoxville on Wednesday commended the joint-agency effort.
“This operation had miraculous results, and I’m glad these children are reunited with their families. Sadly, this is a reminder there are sick and twisted people out there looking to exploit minors,” Burchett said.
“I know the great folks who made Operation Volunteer Strong a success will continue their important work and help put a stop to this criminal activity.”

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
