About This Cause
On the evening of June 9, 1995, Morgan Chauntel Nick was kidnapped while playing with friends just yards away from her mother during a little league game in Alma, Arkansas. A massive investigation ensued, and continues, but Morgan Nick remains missing. After Morgan’s kidnapping it became apparent there was a need for an organization which could provide immediate assistance to the families of missing persons. Colleen Nick, Morgan’s mother, realized this need and determined to fight for Morgan and for the hundreds of children and adults that go missing each year, and in 1996 the Morgan Nick Foundation was launched. The Morgan Nick Foundation (MNF) provides a support network to parents and families of all missing persons. The focus of the MNF falls into three categories: 1. Intervention — provided for any family of a missing person. MNF provides on-site support through trained search and rescue workers; prints and disseminates flyers of missing children and adults; works as a liaison with law enforcement and media; coordinates local and national resources for the searching family; launches a strong social media campaign featuring the missing person; and provides hope, encouragement, resources, empowerment and and on-going support to both the immediate and extended family members of a missing person. MNF stays with the family until the person is recovered and works to coordinate additional resources as needed, to include, but not limited to, counseling, mental health assessment, medical intervention, and family reunification. 2. Education — provides FREE safety skills and abduction prevention education to children, parents, teachers and communities. MNF utilizes a safety curriculum entitled “NetSmartz” provided by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, as well as programs created and tailored specifically to each school district to address their most difficult issues. In 2019 MNF provided presentations to more than 40,000 children and adults. 3. Legislation — Supports legislation that protects the rights of children. MNF was instrumental in Federal Mandate signed by President Clinton for Missing Children, as well as the Megan’s Law legislation that requires sex offender registration and notification of said registered offender. The Adam Walsh Child Protection And Safety Act Of 2006 Project Jason-Voice for the Missing: 12/13/05 Campaign for the Missing 2006 The Morgan Nick Foundation believes that to reduce the number of missing persons we must educate our children and empower them with the skills necessary to protect them from the possible dangers of abduction. We can make a difference… one child at a time.
