Billboards in Houston highlight disappearance of Cyan Dior Amos on National Missing Children’s Day

In honor of National Missing Children’s Day, a new poster campaign will highlight the disappearance of 4-year-old Cyan Dior Amos, missing since December 9, 2022.

The Texas Center for the Missing, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and Clear Channel Outdoor Americas are launching a month-long initiative in Houston to generate leads in Cyan’s case. Clear Channel Outdoor will display messages with photos on its digital billboards throughout the Houston area, broadcast more than 1,200 times per day on each unit for a month.

Cyan’s mother failed to return her to her father, Craig Amos, despite a court order restricting her location. The mother left Texas and was served with an arrest warrant for custody charges on December 14, 2023. Cyan is approximately three feet tall, weighs 31 pounds, and has black hair and brown eyes. On Monday, May 27, we’ll sit down with Craig to learn more about his fight to bring his daughter home, as part of our Missing in Houston series.

The Texas Department of Public Safety’s Missing Persons Clearinghouse received 48,008 missing person reports in 2023, including 35,181 involving minors. As part of Clear Channel Outdoor Americas’ ongoing partnership with the Texas Center for the Missing, this campaign aims to raise awareness of missing children across Texas in cities including El Paso, Houston, Dallas and San Antonio. Thanks to this collaboration, more than 10 Texas children have been reunited with their families.

National Missing Children’s Day was proclaimed by President Ronald Reagan in 1983 to remind parents and guardians of the importance of having high-quality photographs of their children in case of emergency.
