National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)

The National Missing and Unidentified Persons Initiative, NamUs, is the first national online repository for missing persons and unidentified dead cases. The Initiative brings together two innovative, searchable databases to provide a powerful tool for law enforcement agencies, medical examiners and coroners, victim advocates—and the general public—to search for matches between missing persons and unidentified human remains records.
