Description
The New York State Missing Persons Clearinghouse at the Division of Criminal Justice Services, in conjunction with 302 Consulting Group, is hosting a free three-day training course, which is based on the FBI’s Child Abduction Response Plan, that provides law enforcement with the tools, techniques, and strategies to effectively respond to and manage all phases of abducted/missing child investigations.
