Bernice Taylor, 60, was reported missing from Los Angeles after the assisted living facility where she lived in Sylmar was abruptly closed. She was last seen on August 1, 2023, and her family has since lost track of where she was relocated. Authorities believe she may now be in another board and care facility somewhere in Southern California, but no specific location is known.

Bernice is described as a Black female, about 5 feet 9 inches tall and 165 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. She has distinctive tattoos: a name on her chest and inner right arm, and the initials AA KA BA JA on her ankle. The LAPD Missing Persons Unit is actively investigating and asks anyone with information to contact them at (213) 996-1800 or reach out to L.A. Crime Stoppers anonymously.

Does anyone in Southern California remember seeing Bernice or know of a board and care that took residents from that Sylmar facility after August 1, 2023?
