Amarillo, TX (PRWEB) May 25, 2004
It is well known that the AMBER Plan is a voluntary partnership amoung the community at large, broadcasters and law-enforcement agencies to activate urgent bulletins in child-abduction cases. Now, several new working groups have joined the national effort in taking the plan a few steps further.
Team Amber Alert, a Texas Non Profit Corporation and an IRS 501 C(3), has announced the introduction of an Internet-based system that can instantly post AMBER alerts and other emergency broadcasts from local law enforcement.
Broadcasters have used the Emergency Alert System (EAS), formerly the Emergency Broadcast System, to distribute AMBER alerts to the public via EAS RF Relay. Now Team Amber Alert makes this possible online, by broadcasting alerts via an automated system to the public, which law enforcement and missing children organizations posts directly to the Team Amber Alert Online System.
Team Amber Alert was formed out of a project by the first functioning National Amber Alert ticker system’s group at Msnx Communication, which has direct contact with the public, business, industry and government. International support was already been implemented since 2002 and will be fully functioning worldwide first quarter of 2005.
Team Amber Alert is encouraging people to register to receive alerts for their local area and has placed an open invitation for any company or organization with their own internal Amber Alert program, to be integrated directly with TAA system.
Team Amber Alert provides web hosting, volunteer recruiting and internet based cooperative fund raising to assist funding missing children non-profit organizations and their projects. The company’s services also include permission-based email marketing, web application development, design and content development via Msnx Communications.
Team Amber Alert’s software engineers are among the nations leading experts in computer security and cross platform applications development and are skilled in all contemporary applications development languages. Team Amber Alert costs are paid for by corporate sponsorships, which can be found listed on the Team Amber Alert web site. AC_MetaDATA WG at Msnx Communications turned over the responsibilities of the web based system to Team Amber Alert in November of 2003.
Our Primary goal is to reliably relay Amber Alerts from the issuing agencies. And in the event of national emergency to have community chapter in place to assist in all facets of the emergency response.
Team Amber Alert works closely with the left behind family and provide counseling to victims. The new national consortium will also be a real time source for all relays both RF and Digital based networks. Team Amber Alert formed a loose confederation of members that grew out of the desire of many left behind parents to stop this madness of abduction. While some have duplicated, reinvented or otherwise tried to enhance Amber Alert System, no one person can take credit. There is much left to accomplished. The existing systems do not work without volunterism. Please Join us today. Be a real part of America’s Amber Alert Team.
Msnx Communications has been a leader in web design and providing applet scripts to deliver text based messages. In first quarter 2002 Msnx’s AC_MetaData WG released the first encapsulated java script java applet. This was losely based on CNN newsticker and Sun’s Java examples. Virtual Town Crier on the Internet for Amber Alert DATA. In order to turn this work over to volunteers, Team Amber Alert INC was formed as a non profit public charity.
