On most cars, you have to have your foot on the brake to be able to shift out of park while the car is running. Look to see if there is a switch connected to the brake pedal/brake pedal assembly somewhere that may have become dislodged and is not making contact.

Some cars have a finger-operated switch that allows the driver to bypass the brake pedal switch and allow the car to be taken out of park without the brake pedal being engaged.
