Responding to Missing & Unidentified Persons
National Training Conference

2014 Dates to be Announced | Appleton, Wisconsin

Thank you to everyone who contributed to making the 2013 conference a great success!

Each year, tens of thousands of people vanish under suspicious circumstances. In the United States there are over 100,000 active missing persons’ and unidentified human remains cases each day. It is extremely important to improve access to critical information and bridge gaps in resources between law enforcement agencies, forensic professionals; national, state, and local service providers, and families of the missing. This national conference addresses the critical training needs of those who work to solve these cases, and provides a unique opportunity to build multi-disciplinary approaches to investigating missing person and solving unidentified remains cases. Attend this training to learn about the latest available information systems and technology, investigative practices, and ways to develop effective inter-agency collaboration and protocol.

• Law Enforcement:  Administrators, Investigators, Patrol, K-9 search and rescue officers, medical examiners, coroners, and members of the forensic community
• Education:  Administrators, academic counselors, school resource/liaison officers and campus security officers
• Community:  Coalition members, faith-based personnel, representatives from non-profit organizations, advocates supporting aging/at-risk populations, and families of the missing
• Service Occupations:  National and State clearinghouse staff, victim and child welfare advocates, social service and medical professionals
