Missouri continues to have hundreds of children listed as actively missing, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol’s Missing Persons database.

The database is derived from information in the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) and is automatically updated daily based on information supplied by investigating agencies.
The numbers include children reported missing from communities throughout Missouri, including the St. Louis region.
In St. Louis County alone, the active missing-person database includes juvenile cases involving agencies such as Florissant Police Department, Ferguson Police Department, St. Louis County Police Department, Berkeley Police Department and others.
Among the juvenile cases currently appearing in the St. Louis County listing are children ranging from very young children to teenagers.
The database includes cases involving children reported missing years ago as well as more recent reports.
