The Santa Rosa Police Department has officially rolled out their fourth Missing Person Monday campaign to the community, with the aim of shedding light on cold cases involving missing adults. The social media initiative, which shares details of individuals missing for extended periods, commenced in January 2024 and has successfully resolved 13 cases to date.
The inaugural Missing Person Monday campaign began two years ago and immediately located a missing individual. In total, five missing adults were found during the initial campaign, including one who had been missing since 2005. Encouraged by these results, SRPD launched a second series later in 2024, which helped to quickly resolve three more long-standing disappearances.
On the heels of this success, the police department initiated a third campaign in August 2025. Over five weeks, they featured another slate of 25 missing adult cases. By the campaign's conclusion, five cold cases had been resolved, demonstrating the ongoing effectiveness of this public engagement strategy.
As the SRPD embarks on the newest cycle of posts, they hope to continue to successfully leverage community support to bring closure to families of the missing. "Today, we begin our fourth Missing Person Monday campaign with the hope that with your help, we can resolve more cases," stated the Santa Rosa Police in their latest social media post. The department emphasizes the role of the public in these efforts, encouraging residents to be vigilant and to share information on their platforms to aid in the search.
Those with knowledge about the immediate whereabouts of the featured individuals are urged to contact their local law enforcement or the Santa Rosa Police directly at 707-528-5222. Tips that may assist the investigations can be submitted to the SRPD Violent Crimes Investigations Team at 707-543-3590.
