A Maine teenager has been missing for over a month now after she was last seen leaving home and walking into the woods, according to police.

Maine State Police say that all available resources have been utilized in order to find Stefanie, including collaborations with the Maine State Police Computer Crimes Unit and the FBI.

However, in an update on Oct. 23, police said that despite their “extensive” efforts, Stefanie remained missing.

“Investigators have conducted many interviews and followed up on leads in Maine, nationally, and in Canada," they wrote. “The Maine Warden Service and Maine State Police K9 Unit have searched large parcels of land near Stefanie’s last known location.”

PEOPLE reached out to the Maine Police Department for comment but did not receive an immediate response.

According to police, Stephanie, who was 13 at the time of her disappearance, is 5 ft. tall, weighs 130 lbs. and has green eyes and shoulder-length brown hair. She was last seen wearing blue jeans, a long sleeve blue shirt, and black Harley Davidson hiking boots.
