PROJECT NAME: A Study of the Impact of Long-term Abduction on Family Reunification

ABSTRACT: Ten people who were missing for over five years due to either a family or a non-family abduction will be interviewed about their experiences with reunifying with their family members.  Family members may also be interviewed.  The purpose is to learn what can help the reunification process after a lengthy separation and to explore where implications can be developed for family theory in relation to reunification.
