AI Summary

This resolution recognizes Colleen Nick and the Morgan Nick Foundation on the thirtieth anniversary of her daughter Morgan Nick's kidnapping, highlighting their significant contributions to child safety and missing children advocacy. The resolution details how, after Morgan's abduction from a baseball game in Alma, Arkansas in 1995, Colleen Nick founded the Morgan Nick Foundation in 1996 to help prevent child abductions and support families of missing children. The foundation has worked closely with the Arkansas State Police, helping to develop prevention education programs, assist in investigations, and contribute to the recovery of numerous missing children. Notably, Colleen Nick was instrumental in establishing the Morgan Nick AMBER Alert in Arkansas and has become a nationally recognized advocate, speaking at venues like the FBI Academy and meeting with high-profile figures such as former President George W. Bush. The resolution specifically acknowledges the foundation's partnership with the VALOR Group, which has helped recover 82 children in 2024, and recognizes Nick's ongoing work as an independent consultant with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. The resolution ultimately aims to honor Nick's tireless efforts in fighting for missing children and supporting their families, demonstrating appreciation for her decades of dedicated work in child safety and recovery.
