NEW HAVEN, Conn. (WTNH) — Saturday, May 24, marks six years since Jennifer Farber Dulos, a New Canaan mother of five, disappeared after dropping her children off at school. Carrie Luft, a friend of the Farber Dulos family, issued a statement on their behalf. Saturday, May 24, marks six years since Jennifer Farber Dulos was murdered and disappeared. She lives on in our hearts and through her five incredible children, now young adults, who have grown up without both parents. We miss her love, grace, and strength; her laughter, brilliance, and wisdom; her gentle voice and comforting presence. In Jennifer's honor, we encourage those who can do so to donate to community organizations that support survivors of family violence, such as Interval House Hartford, the Rose Brooks Center, and many others; as well as to groups such as the Black and Missing Foundation and Missing/Murdered Indigenous Women and Relatives. These organizations—and the people they support—need your help now more than ever. We remain deeply grateful to the Connecticut state's attorney's office and the Connecticut State Police for their ongoing commitment to finding Jennifer. As we continue to mourn her loss, please respect the privacy of Jennifer's children, family, and loved ones. Thank you.
