This resource was initially developed in 2003 and updated in 2009 following significant advances in the missing persons sector both in NSW, nationally and internationally.
The resource was initially written by project officer Ann Dadich, with support and guidance provided by the project's Reference Group, as well as family members and friends of missing persons. The 2009 reprint was edited by Sarah Wayland, Coordinator Families and Friends of Missing Persons Unit with guidance by a small reference group including a family member of a missing person.
The FFMP Reference Group:
Sarah Wayland, Coordinator Families and Friends of Missing Persons Unit, NSW Attorney General's Department
Pamela Verrall, Mental Health Association NSW
Jill Faddy, President, NSW Missing Persons Committee Inc.
Pauline Flint, mother of a missing person
Their experiences and comments have added great value to the resource.
