RAISE HOPE 2017 SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES IN SUPPORT OF MISSING CHILDREN SOCIETY OF CANADA THURSDAY MAY 25, 2017 6:00PM - 9:00PM SUB ROSA, THE GUILD
Our mission at MCSC is to help return the 45,000 children reported missing every year in Canada to a safe haven. MCSC Most Valuable Network 1 2 3 Partnering with police both nationally and locally Working with partners and technology to connect police and communities Providing investigative and family support services The Problem - Defined 45K children go missing in Canada every year +30K are classified as vulnerable youths - they could have been lured away; but even if they are runaways, they are always in potential danger 150 of these missing children are abductions Of those 150, only 6 last year were AMBER Alerts because a case has to adhere to very strict criteria for an AMBER Alert to be issued While MCSC uses all of our resources to help with AMBER Alerts, what about the missing child whose case does not meet those requirements?
1 CACP Board Endorses the MCSC to Amplify Police Searches Across Canada In 2014 the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police Board of Directors endorsed the MCSC and our efforts in finding missing children. They have amplified our voice with the RCMP and Police Services leadership across Canada to evaluate, educate and encourage the use of the MCSC s Most Valuable Network. When a child is abducted or goes missing, MCSC lets local and national police amplify their voice through our network. We built it for exactly that reason and only police can activate it. When a case comes up and they need a targeted connection with Canadian communities, they reach out to us to create a Child Search Alert and we broadcast them throughout our technology network. MCSC also encourages policing leadership to utilize our network for rebroadcasting AMBER Alerts. This collaboration is a significant step in the right direction as Canadian municipalities work to implement proactive solutions to find missing children. 2 Biggest Technology Companies in the World Support and Broadcast MVN to Canadian Communities The Most Valuable Network uses technology to connect police with community the eyes and ears for our missing children. With the help of our corporate and technology partners like Microsoft, Google, BlackBerry and Kijiji, our technology network is expanding every day. We have multiple ways to broadcast information to the public and can geo-target alerts to a city, province or across all of Canada. Social Social media like Facebook and Twitter are the most powerful tools to magnify our Child Search Alerts. For example, the City of Calgary has 90K followers on Facebook. If we broadcast an alert through our social channels, that number multiplies to reach hundreds of thousands more. Mobile MCSC s Smartphone App, developed by RallyEngine, is supported by our corporate partners. We can push Alerts and updates to thousands of partner company employees like WestJet and Via Rail. Media Our partnership with MarketWired allows us to connect with every online and traditional media outlet in the country. 3 MCSC's Full Service Investigative and Family Support Initiatives Advance Rescue Efforts MCSC has our own in-house investigative team staffed with former law enforcement who help bring missing children home. Our specialized investigators offer the full range of support services involved in investigating a missing child case, from the date of disappearance to the reunification process. We work with municipal, provincial, national and international law enforcement agencies to support and advance investigative efforts. We also provide support for the families of missing children including counseling and legal advice. By connecting them to local community support and collaborating with partnering agencies, we provide families with an essential support network and resources in their time of need.
