Cynthia Ann Henderson, a female listed by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children as 18 years old, was reported missing from Youngstown, Ohio, after being last seen on August 20, 2024. The available public information about her disappearance is limited, but the details that have been released place her case firmly in Youngstown and identify her through NCMEC case number 2029769 and NCIC number M378085486.
NCMEC’s poster states that Cynthia was last seen on August 20, 2024, and directs anyone with information to contact the Youngstown Police Department or NCMEC’s 24-hour call center.
The few public listings available describe Cynthia as a young white female and identify her full name as Cynthia Ann Henderson. One listing associated with the NCMEC poster described her as having brown hair, hazel eyes, and a slim build, while another child-alert page reported black hair, brown eyes, a height of 4 feet 12 inches, and a weight of about 120 pounds. Because public missing-person notices sometimes vary in physical descriptors as information is updated or reposted, the most consistent identifying facts are her name, gender, Youngstown location, and last-seen date.
The Ohio Attorney General’s missing-person poster adds one of the most specific details about the day Cynthia was last seen: she was reportedly wearing a pink hoodie, sparkling red slides, and carrying a red backpack in Youngstown on August 20, 2024. Those details are important because clothing and carried items can help people remember a sighting, especially in the early hours or days after someone disappears, but they can also remain meaningful later if someone recalls seeing a young woman matching that description around the time she was reported missing.
Publicly available sources do not provide a detailed timeline of Cynthia’s movements before she disappeared, the circumstances under which she was last seen, who last saw her, or whether investigators believe she may have traveled elsewhere. They also do not describe any confirmed sightings after August 20, 2024. What remains publicly documented is a sparse but serious missing-person record: Cynthia Ann Henderson was last seen in Youngstown, Ohio, her case was circulated through NCMEC and other missing-person alert sites, and the Youngstown Police Department was listed as the local agency connected to the case.
For Cynthia’s family, friends, and community, the lack of public detail does not make her disappearance any less urgent or painful. A missing-person case with limited information can leave loved ones in a difficult place, forced to live with uncertainty while hoping that someone, somewhere, remembers something useful. The public record asks people to focus on the essentials: Cynthia Ann Henderson, female, 18 years old as listed by NCMEC, missing since August 20, 2024, from Youngstown, Ohio; reportedly connected to a description that included a pink hoodie, sparkling red slides, and a red backpack; and associated with requests for information through Youngstown Police and NCMEC. In overview, this is the case of a young woman whose disappearance from Youngstown remains documented through official and missing-child alert sources, with the central facts pointing to one date, one place, and an ongoing need for anyone with reliable information to come forward.Last Seen: Aug 20, 2024
