Published by

Community United Effort (CUE) based in Wilmington, NC launches the I AM ONE missing persons awareness campaign on it’s 25th Anniversary to display the thousands of missing persons cases from communities across the nation. I AM ONE serves as a reminder of over 600,000 people who are reported absent from their families.

National media provides families a renewed hope that the news will reach more people in a short time allowing for additional information to move a case forward.” People …
