Each year, the department of public safety, in collaboration with the clearinghouse, shall host a “missing in New Mexico event” in support of all New Mexicans who are searching for missing relatives. The missing in New Mexico event is designated to:
A. provide an opportunity for federal, state, local and tribal governments to come together in one location and virtually to assist families to file missing persons reports, update missing persons reports, submit DNA records or meet with an investigator;
B. provide a network for New Mexicans with missing relatives to heal, access support services and access media outlets to distribute information about missing relatives to the general public; and
C. encourage the department of public safety, local law enforcement agencies, the office of the attorney general, the office of the state medical investigator, the Indian affairs department, the department of health and the behavioral health services and income support divisions of the human services department [health care authority department] to come together to provide support and services for New Mexican families with missing relatives.
