While Apple's AppleCare+ plans for iPhone have optional (additional cost) cover for theft, available AppleCare+ plans for iPad do not cover loss or theft of iPad devices.
As for your stolen iPad, start here:
Locate a device in Find My on iPad - Apple Support
Here is Apple’s advice for lost or stolen devices:
If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch is lost or stolen – Apple Support
Use the Find My app to locate a lost or stolen device – Apple Support
If the Find My iPad feature was enabled prior to it being “misplaced”, then if active, you would stand a good chance of locating it.
However, if the feature was not activated prior to being misplaced - or the iPad has been inactive for more than 24 hours, the last known location will not be available - and the opportunity to use technical means to recover the iPad have been lost.

AppleCare+ doesn't cover lost or stolen iPads. Check any non-Apple insurance policies you have and buy another one.
