Missing persons

Black Americans, adults and children, go missing at higher rates than their share of the population and get far less media attention. Less attention means fewer people looking. Sharing verified information helps bring people home.

77 verified cases. Each one was verified by a Community Report moderator; select a person for the full details and the agency to call.
