Overview
The NMPCC is funded by the Federal Government through the Australian Federal Police. Its mission is to reduce the incidence and impact of missing persons and to educate the Australian community about this significant issue.
The NMPCC works within the National Missing Persons Policy PLEASE principles of Prevention, Location, Education, Awareness, Support and Evaluation. The policy provides a framework for a range of initiatives to be progressed including service delivery issues.
You can read more about the initiatives and developments of the NMPCC and the missing persons sector through the quarterly eBulletin Missing.
