We aim to become a collection of industry experts, collaboratively working with other organizations to contribute to this issue.

There are many reasons for a person to go missing, whether it be child abduction, sex trafficking, escaping domestic abuse, or death. No matter the reason, these are stories that need to be told and are worthy of discussion.
