SUCCESS STORY: MISSINGKIDSALERT ISSUED TO LOCATE VULNERABLE YOUTH POSSIBLY
TRAVELLING ACROSS CANADA

In spring 2017, the mother of a 15-year-old boy contacted MissingKids.ca after
reporting her son missing to RCMP. Information gathered throughout the
investigation led to the possibility that the youth had left his residence and
may be travelling east across multiple provinces. Using relevant and strategic
case information, a MissingKidsALERT was distributed to individuals and
businesses across four provinces, while being mindful not to overexpose the
youth. During this time ongoing support was provided to the searching parent
until the boy was safely located in the province he was believed to be heading.


ABOUT MISSINGKIDSALERT

MissingKidsALERT uses a targeted system to facilitate the rapid distribution of
critical information in a missing child case, allowing the public to serve as
the eyes and ears for searching families and police.

The MissingKidsALERT service:

 * Deals with a broad spectrum of missing child cases in which public
   notification and assistance has been deemed valuable. Alerts will not be
   issued where the risk to the child, searching family, or investigation
   outweighs the value of notifying the public.
 * Is a targeted and precise notification service that notifies individuals who
   have signed up in the event of a missing child in their region.
 * Can complement existing provincial AMBER Alert systems and can also be used
   in cases which fall outside of the AMBER Alert protocol.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why should I sign up? Numerous children have been safely located by citizens
recognizing the face of a missing child and reporting their concerns to the
appropriate authorities. How is the MissingKidsALERT service different than the
AMBER Alert system? The MissingKidsALERT service does not interrupt public
broadcasting systems and only targets specific areas where it is believed the
missing child may be. While a number of factors are taken into account, there
are no specific criteria that must be met for an alert to be sent out. More
information on AMBER Alerts. What do I do when I receive a MissingKidsALERT?
Make sure you pay attention to the instructions included in the alert. There
will be times when recipients are encouraged to share the alert publicly and
other times when they are asked to simply view the alert but not to share it
publicly. In addition to sharing the alert electronically with your network if
instructed to do so, we would encourage you to be on the lookout in your
community and take the time to talk to your family and friends who may have
helpful information. What happens to my contact information? Your contact
information is not shared with anyone outside of our organization. It is used
only for the purpose of sending alerts that you have signed up to receive. See
our Privacy Policy for more information. Will I receive an alert every time a
child goes missing? No. Consideration is always given to the value of public
notification. In some cases, alerts will not be issued through the
MissingKidsALERT service where the risk to the child, searching family, or
investigation outweighs the value of notifying the public. Alerts are also
geographically targeted. How do I update my preferences or unsubscribe from

police to disseminate information throughout the city, alerting community
members to engage in the search. Thankfully, the boy was found the same day and
reunited with his family. Ongoing support was provided to assist in the
aftermath of their child going missing.
