This OJJDP grant offers vital training and technical assistance to significantly enhance the national AMBER Alert network. The program’s primary goals are to improve and increase law enforcement’s immediate response to cases involving missing, endangered, and abducted children, leading to higher recovery rates. Furthermore, it seeks to strengthen public participation in the collaborative effort to locate and safely return these children. A critical component of this initiative involves continuing and expanding support for AMBER Alert operations within Indian country, directly addressing the implementation requirements of the Ashlynne Mike AMBER Alert in Indian Country Act of 2018. This comprehensive grant is designed to bolster nationwide child abduction response capabilities and ensure robust, inclusive support for all communities.
