State Offender Registry Links

Public access to information about sex offenders in the United States is the result of (1) the Wetterling Crimes Against Children and Sexually Violent Offender Registration Act, (2) the Pam Lychner Sexual Offender Tracking and Identification Act and (3) Megan's Law, which require states to release relevant information about registered sex offenders to protect the public.

Each state differs in terms of how it administers its community notification process. On-line access to varying degrees is offered by all states except Hawaii, Maine, Missouri, Nevada, Ohio and Washington. For these states, the link we have provided is to the state attorney general.

Or get to a state sex offenders list by selecting from the following links:

[Alabama] [Alaska] [Arizona] [Arkansas] [California] [Colorado] [Connecticut] [Delaware] [District of Columbia] [Florida] [Georgia] [Hawaii] [Idaho] [Illinois] [Indiana] [Iowa] [Kansas] [Kentucky] [Louisiana] [Maine] [Maryland] [Massachusetts] [Michigan] [Minnesota] [Mississippi] [Missouri] [Montana] [Nebraska] [Nevada] [New Hampshire] [New Jersey] [New Mexico] [New York] [North Carolina] [North Dakota] [Ohio] [Oklahoma] [Oregon] [Pennsylvania] [Rhode Island] [South Carolina] [South Dakota] [Tennessee] [Texas] [Utah] [Vermont] [Virginia] [Washington] [West Virginia] [Wisconsin] [Wyoming]

Although you can get sex offenders list information directly from the state, you might find it easier to do a free search of the National Alert Registry where all you need to do is enter your zip code. Once you know if there are registered sex offenders in your area code, you can then decide to subscribe to the full service and get tons of detailed information about all registered sex offenders listed in the database.
