Why are missing-person alert systems like AMBER and Silver so important?
Members of the general public can be critical allies should your loved one go missing, and alerts like these offer rapid-response systems. Depending on the state, alert systems mandate a ready-made search effort and enhanced communication efforts that may include media and other public broadcasting measures. In many cases, children with autism look like typical kids, or may seem old enough to be alone. Public alerts that provide descriptions of these children can greatly increase a childs chance of being found quickly.
