Acknowledgment
Compass IGG & Advocacy works collaboratively with families, law enforcement, and forensic partners. While we strive to support every case, not all cases will be eligible for investigative genetic genealogy. Compass IGG & Advocacy cannot guarantee that any of the steps taken involving DNA or genealogy will lead to successful identification of your loved one. Our team will review your information carefully and follow up with next steps.
