To gather pertinent information on cases where someone (adult) left their family and never looked back. These people knowingly left their family members wondering and searching for years, using public and private funds for searches.
Oh wow, it now says Lavanda has 450 votes but did everyone see this message on the site? We may have to vote again because they think they lost votes! No problem - I'll vote umpteen times but thought you might like to know. Here's the message:

Profile Information
- Which Peace4 Team would you most like to participate in?
- Sleuths
- Are you involved with other organizations (please include link if applicable) relating to Missing Persons and Domestic Violence...and if so, please share a bit about here...
- Yes, I'm involved in several organizations having solely to do with the plight of Missing Persons worldwide; as well as the problem of unidentified remains. I am the principal of The Missing Persons Project forum, where volunteers catalogue, list and keep track of MPs and UIDs and attempt to match them.
- Please share a few sentences regarding what social issues, cases, activism efforts best describe who you are and why you are here...
- I'm not particularly political; having found that it frustrates me too much. I am here because I share the same concerns but am not an activist per se. In other words, I prefer to let younger, energetic, more skilled heads go the political route. I'm too old these days, to fight 'city hall', but continue to do the quiet, behind the scenes grunt-work.
- Which Current Member of Peace4 Referred You Here?
- Marian DeRossett
- How long have you been "observing" Peace4 prior to applying for membership, why would you like to be an active member of Peace4?
- About 3 weeks
- Positive Suggestions/Ways you may be able to improve/contribute to Peace4?
- I have several years experience researching missing persons' and unidentified persons' cases and a legal background.
Missing Persons and Unidentified Remains
My basic focus in the plight of the missing persons worldwide is to attempt to match unidentified remains with those persons.
The number of unidentified remains in the US has reached a crisis point. In 2004 The Federal Bureau of Justice Statistics reported that Medical Examiners and Coroners hold at least 14,000 sets of human remains who remain nameless - a number far more than the FBI acknowledges. The number grows at the rate of at least 1,000 a year. Sadly, the rest of the world is no different; this is not an American problem.
There are several websites dedicated to matching missing persons and unidentified persons. The Missing Persons Project is but one of them, but I invite you to join us and hope that you will. We need help adding cases and making matches: http://mpproject.invisionplus.net/

There are so many every day demands in our lives. I want to be sure there is someone here to greet and direct the new members as soon as they join.

- I thought this was a fantastic offer and opportunity! I'm just spreading the word. Please contact Chad/TrackMissing to include your missing loved one. Thank you for all you do Chad!

TrackMissing would really like to get your missing loved one listed on our site. Please send us an email (trackmissing@gmail.com), contact me through Peace4 or go to our website www.trackmissing.org and authorize us to do so. We will be holding multiple fund raisers and public awarness events over the next several months and this will increase traffic to our website and get your missing loved ones face out to more people.
If anyone knows how to send this message to all peace4 members please do so. We do not want to overlook a single missing person. Even if you do not wish for us to assist in your case, we will still post the picture and link to the missing persons site. Also, at each event we will profile multiple missing persons for additional exposure.

- I'm sorry to say I haven't been here much lately. I see others have been working their butts off to make Peace4 work! Peace4 is so INSPIRATIONAL, so CREATIVE, so needs to be 501C3/Non-Profit! However, funds are needed to achieve this dream. COLD-HARD-CASH! Yes, times are tough. Me, personally, I have never been this broke in my life. It sucks! I've made a couple of small donations to Peace4 because that's all I could afford. Peace4 members, PLEASE, give what you can!

We are all praying for Jim! He and his family have worked hard to help many families and victims, including those abused by law enforcement officers who have had nowhere to turn for help. His comfort and joy brings hope to many who are dealing with…
