Recovering Missing Persons

Training for Autism & Dementia Response

When someone with autism or dementia goes missing, it's not a typical search—and it requires a specialized response.

The core course content is consistent across roles, but separate versions are offered for officers and dispatchers to reflect their unique responsibilities during a search.

All participants will learn about elopement, how to communicate effectively with missing persons and their caregivers, and how to build a response plan before the call comes in. Each version includes tailored strategies, safety techniques, and role-specific resources for use in the field and with families or support providers.

This course is currently available at no cost to law enforcement personnel across California. Due to grant terms, eligibility is limited to law enforcement personnel in California.
