What is an Amber Alert?

The AMBER Plan is a voluntary partnership between law-enforcement agencies and broadcasters to activate an urgent bulletin in the most serious child-abduction cases. Broadcasters use the Emergency Alert System (EAS) to air a description of the abducted child and suspected abductor and enlist the help of an entire community to assist in the search. This is the same concept used during severe weather emergencies.

Why Was the AMBER Plan Created?

The AMBER Plan was created in 1997 following the abduction and murder of 9-year-old Amber Hagerman in Arlington, Texas. Residents contacted radio stations in the Dallas area and suggested they broadcast special "alerts" over the airwaves so that they could help prevent such incidents in the future.
