Who we are

Missing Persons Alerts Nationwide is a volunteer-run community alert network — everyday people sharing verified missing-person alerts to help bring people home. Neighbors helping neighbors.

To be plain about it: we are not affiliated with law enforcement. We are simply volunteers — neighbors sharing verified alerts — doing this because every missing person deserves to be seen.

Our mission

• Share verified missing persons alerts quickly and accurately to help bring people home.
• Give a voice to families who feel unheard.
• Keep cases visible so they are not forgotten.
• Provide a supportive, respectful community focused on facts, not rumors.
• Advocate with compassion, integrity, and urgency.

How verification works

Every alert we publish is confirmed through an official source before it goes out:

• Law enforcement agencies (police and sheriff's offices)
• The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC)
• The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)
• State missing-person clearinghouses

Third-party awareness platforms are treated as lead sources only — a case is never published based on a third-party flyer alone. Rumors and unverified social media claims are never posted.

If you see someone from an alert

• Call the agency and phone number listed on the flyer immediately.
• In an emergency, call 911.
• Do not post tips or sightings publicly on social media — share them directly with investigators.
• Do not approach anyone if it is unsafe to do so.
