	New Jersey State Police - New Jersey's Amber Alert Plan
		The AMBER Plan is a voluntary, cooperative program between the law enforcement community and the broadcast media to send an emergency alert, called “AMBER Alert,” to the public when a child has been abducted and it is believed that the child’s life is in grave danger.
		AMBER Alerts are intended for non-family cases of child abduction, where the child is in imminent danger of serious bodily harm or death.
		The AMBER Plan was created in 1996 as a powerful legacy to 9-year-old Amber Hagerman, a bright little girl who was kidnapped while riding her bicycle in Arlington, Texas and brutally murdered.
