Amber Alert System
| |
|
The AMBER Plan was created in 1996 as a powerful legacy to 9-year-old Amber Hagerman, a bright little girl who was kidnapped and brutally murdered while riding her bicycle in Arlington, Texas. The tragedy shocked and outraged the entire community. 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. |
In response to the community’s concern for the safety of local children, the Dallas/Fort Worth Association of Radio Managers teamed up with local law-enforcement agencies in northern Texas and developed this innovative early warning system to help find abducted children. Statistics show that, when abducted, a child’s greatest enemy is time. |

Did you know there are 839,500 attempted abductions each year?There are 839,500 attempted abductions each year across the United States. At Safe & Sound we believe that many abductions could be defeated if families develop good safety habits through our program. The only way we can do that is if we work together as a safety team. |
