AMBER PLAN PARTNERS 

Amber Plan Partners are corporations, businesses, government agencies, community groups, and non-profit organizations that actively participate in the Amber Alert program. 

If funding is available to complete the Amber Plan website, the Amber Plan Partners program may be expanded later to include private individuals. 

There is no cost to become an Amber Plan Partner, but you must register in advance and be approved for participation by the Houston LECC’s Amber Plan Subcommittee.

	Amber Plan Partners will receive e-mail or fax notification of every Amber Alert, Update, and Cancellation issued by KTRH-AM 740.
	Amber Plan Partners are encouraged to notify their employees, customers, and vendors by e-mail or fax of each Amber Alert, urging them to be “on the lookout” for the abducted child, suspect, or suspect’s vehicle.
	Municipal and school bus programs, taxi companies, courier and delivery services, repair service businesses, and other companies and government agencies that have a large number of drivers and vehicles out on the streets are especially encouraged to participate as Amber Plan Partners.
	Amber Plan Partners are encouraged to promote the Amber Plan website (www.amber-plan.net) and to add a link on their agency or company website to the Amber Plan website.
	Amber Plan Partners are authorized to purchase a TRAK computer system in order to receive an Amber Alert flyer with a color photograph of the abducted child.  For more information, call TRAK at 800-724-8725
	TRAK flyers or Amber Plan website pages can be posted on employee bulletin boards, cash registers, customer service counters, or other high-visibility locations.
