Where to start

  • If you have questions or information on missing people or found people, your local first responders are the best place to begin. In most instances this would be the police or the sheriff. Red Cross and Salvation Army also have access to where to turn.
  • Use the link posted below in the Missing & Found Resources section
  • In the event you need more help, use our interactive wiki feature to post a question. First, write up your information in a text editor. Then, copy it to the clipboard. If you click on the "Edit" tab, above, you will be able to sign in. After you sign in, go to the bottom of the page and paste the information in at the very bottom, using the edit feature. If it doesn't look pretty, don't worry, we'll fix it for you! Don't forget to add your contact information!
