The John Rowan Foundation and The Justice Coalition co-hosted the “Missing Adults’ Day” event to honor the families of missing people and keep public interest alive in the continued search for missing adults.In 2022, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office received over 3,000 missing person cases. Of those cases, 650 were men over the age of 18, and 439 were females over the age of 18.
“Each missing adult has a father and mother, son, daughter, sister, brother, and a loved one. A missing person continues to be missed by someone in this community,” Waters said. “We will not stop searching. We will not waver in our commitment to you and your family to provide answers. We stand with you and acknowledge the continued pain that you endure.”
