Jocelyn Gabriela Villar has been missing from Amarillo, Texas, since September 4, 2026.
She is 16 years old.
More than three weeks have passed since the date listed on her official missing-child poster. Her photograph remains available through the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, where authorities continue to seek information that could help locate her.
The public record provides few details about what happened.
NCMEC identifies Jocelyn by name, age, missing date and location. Its public description states only that she was last seen September 4.
The poster does not identify a confirmed destination, companion, vehicle or circumstances explaining her disappearance.
Those unanswered questions should not become speculation.
A photograph worth remembering
Public awareness begins with recognizing the child behind the missing-person report.
Someone may recognize Jocelyn’s photograph. Someone may remember seeing her. Someone may have information they did not realize could help authorities.
Please examine her official NCMEC photograph and share the verified missing-child poster.
Do not substitute an unofficial photograph or circulate unverified claims about her disappearance.
Jocelyn’s case is being investigated by the Amarillo Police Department. Anyone with information should report it directly to law enforcement or NCMEC rather than attempting an independent investigation.
Verification date: September 28, 2026. Check the live NCMEC poster for updates.

The Texas Public Record Rights. Accountability. Awareness.
The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children lists the 14-year-old in its missing-child records. Authorities are seeking information that could help locate her.
More than a month after Jami King went missing from Houston, the public is being asked to help bring information to investigators. The official case record identifies the investigating agency but does not explain the circumstances of the disappearance.
