Joana Villaneuva-Valle was 17 when she was last seen in Morristown, New Jersey, on August 31, 2020. Family members reported her missing and a police report was filed on September 5, 2020. She is described as a Hispanic female with black hair and brown eyes, about five feet four inches tall and weighing 130 to 135 pounds.

Initial details about Joana’s disappearance were sparse. The Morristown Police Department opened an investigation and one lead suggested she might be in California, though no concrete public details about that tip have been provided. The limited timeline and lack of clear leads left family and investigators with many unanswered questions.

If anyone in Morristown or California remembers seeing Joana around late August or early September 2020, or has information about her whereabouts, please contact the Morristown Police Department.
