The Maryland Center for Missing and Unidentified Persons (MCMUP) was established by Maryland Family Law (§9-401 through §9-403) in 1985 as the state's clearinghouse for  missing persons information, and is a unit within the Maryland State Police, Technical Investigation Section, which also consists of the Missing Child Recovery Unit, Computer Crimes Unit, and Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force.  Our division was formerly titled the Maryland Center for Missing Children (MCMC), but changed our name to more accurately represent our mission.  As always, we look forward to serving the public and assisting allied police agencies.
