A Celebration for the safe return of
Alisa Maier
Held August 13th
Fenton Memorial Park
And MoCHIP was there!
After the ceremony celebrating the safe return of Alisa Maier who on July 6, 2010 was kidnapped from her yard in Louisiana, Missouri, MoCHIP stepped in to ID children as a proactive measure of insuring their safety--including Alisa Maier, her brother Blake and sister Sierra. It was a very emotionally rewarding day for all the MoCHIP volunteers who realized the miracle for what it was ... Alisa was there being ID'd just like any other child, when the circumstances could have easily turned disastrous. It's safe to say we all had a lump in our throat and warmth in our hearts for this little girl and her loving family.

Welcome to the MO Child ID & Protection Program!
Thank you for visiting MOCHIP.ORG. Our program is a comprehensive child identification and protection tool designed to give families a measure of protection against the ever increasing problem of missing children. This program is provided free of charge to every family who wishes to participate.
It is our sincerest hope that no family will need the resource provided in our packets, but if the need should arise we believe the information that we provide from our program will be instrumental to law enforcement agencies in the recovery of a missing child.
The Missouri Freemasons schedule and present this fine program to communities throughout Missouri. MOCHIP is a part of the National Masonichip network (http://www.masonichip.org/) sponsored by the Conference of Grand Masters of Masons in North America. All identifying items generated at MOCHIP events are placed in a pack and given to the parent or guardian to take home for safe keeping. Should their child become missing, the pack can then be provided to law enforcement to aid in recovery and identification. The Missouri Freemasons keep nothing but the permission form signed by the parent prior to participation in the event.
