On Friday morning, a "reverse 911" call went out to Rancho Bernardo-area residents, urging them to immediately report any possible sightings of the missing teen.

It sounds like the police are doing a great job using all resources they can to find Chelsea.
They really are! And part of that was helped by her parents calling so quickly once they knew something was amiss. It was under an hour from the time Chelsea was supposed to be home when her dad had already called AT&T, learned the car was still at the park, and then called the Sheriff. And the Sheriff responded and began mobilizing right away. Both of those are such contrasts to many cases we've seen lately, and hopefully that will lead to a better outcome!
And business and organizations are really kicking in with donations, awareness, and volunteering. For instance by about 9 am yesterday, local churches had emailed out the search flier to all their parishioners, which is huge since there are several large churches right nearby, and with many of their attendees living in the neighborhood closest to the park.
This really is quite a close knit community, especially after what we've been through with the wildfires. So we've got experience about rallying together and everyone doing whatever part they can do - and realizing that doesn't look the same for everyone...but yet everyone doing something to try and help Chelsea be brought home!
