Building on the momentum generated last year, the New Hampshire Coalition of Families of the Missing and Murdered will gather again this year to raise awareness for the 130 plus unsolved missing and murdered cases in the state. The Coalition, comprised of victim families, survivors, and advocates, gathered at the Attorney General?s Office in Concord in August 2023. The families and advocates insisted that the Attorney General improve communication, reform the victim advocacy program and secure justice for the victims. The stagnation of the investigations, communication gaps, and shared sense of apathy was the driving force behind these devastated families banding together. The Coalition garnered tremendous support within the community and has grown in size over the past year with other victim families joining the effort. As a result of last year?s gathering many of the families were granted an audience with the Attorney General?s office and their respective detectives. While the Attorney General?s office has taken steps to address the shared grievances, the Coalition aims to keep that momentum going in a positive direction.

This year the Coalition plans to take a more collaborative approach and extend invitations to state officials. The belief is that a more united front will give solace and hope to the families who live in agonizing limbo. 

The New Hampshire Coalition of Families of the Missing and Murdered will gather at the State House, 107 N. Main St. in Concord, NH on August 13, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. Families, advocates, and supporters are welcome to attend the peaceful gathering.
