Missing & Unidentified Persons Awareness Day

Special Events Accouncement--Missouri Missing & Unidentified Persons Awareness Day, on June 17, 2008 at Jefferson City Capital Building at the Rotunda located on the first floor.

Welcome to Missouri Missing. As you browse through our website, we invite you to remember there are more than 1,436 missing person cases and at least 47 unidentified bodies in Missouri today.
According to the FBI and the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) there are nearly 51,000 active missing adult cases and more than 40,000 unidentified bodies in the United States and that number continues to grow daily.
It is hard to imagine what that means. It is hard to imagine the impact having a missing loved one can cause to a family.
Unfortunately, unless a person actually experiences the loss of a missing loved one, chances are they never think about how they would be affected.
Among the many things that need to be done to assist the families who suffer from the loss of a missing loved one, Missouri Missing intends to serve as an outreach service for the families while educating the public on the severity and impact of missing adults on society as a whole.
