News Release
UPDATE - Oregon Department of Human Services announces that the Barboza siblings have been found - 10/30/24

(Salem) – The Oregon Department of Human Services (ODHS), Child Welfare Division, is thankful for the community support to find the Barboza siblings. 

Jose Armani Ayala Barboza, age 8, Jailyne Ayala Barboza, age 5, and Dolce Ayala Barboza, age 5, are children who went missing from Bend on Oct. 2. They were found Oct. 27. 

Sometimes when a child is missing they may be in significant danger and ODHS may need to locate them to assess and support their safety. As ODHS works to do everything it can to find these missing children and assess their safety, media alerts will be issued in some circumstances when it is determined necessary. Sometimes, in these situations, a child may go missing repeatedly, resulting in more than one media alert for the same child.

Report child abuse to the Oregon Child Abuse Hotline by calling 1-855-503-SAFE (7233).  This toll-free number allows you to report abuse of any child or adult to the Oregon Department of Human Services, 24 hours a day, seven days a week and 365 days a year.
