Jessica Hager, NamUs Regional Program Specialist
National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) is a national information clearinghouse and resource center for missing, unidentified, and unclaimed persons across the United States. Funded and administered by the National Institute of Justice and managed through a cooperative agreement with the UNT Health Science Center in Fort Worth, Texas, all NamUs resources are provided at no cost to law enforcement, medical examiners, coroners, allied forensic professionals, and family members of missing persons. Jessica will provide information on the benefits surrounding the use of the NamUs system, discuss the biometric resources that are provided through NamUs/UNTCHI and demonstrate how to register and use the NamUs system.
