WHAT IS AMBER ALERT?
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. Once notified of an authenticated abduction, the New Jersey State Police contacts the broadcast media, the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), as well as all listed AMBER Alert partners. NOAA immediately interrupts radio and television programming to broadcast information about the abducted child, and/or the abductor, by activating a prearranged distinctive tone, followed by 'This is an AMBER Alert'. The media will rebroadcast the AMBER Alert as often as possible, per the guidelines established by the New Jersey Broadcasters Association (NJBA) for the first three to six hours. After the initial six hours, the alert will be rebroadcast at such intervals as the investigating authority, the State Police and the participating media deem appropriate.

CHILD SAFETY ON THE INTERNET
Make it a family rule to never give out identifying information-home address, school name or home and cellular telephone numbers on public chat Web Sites or bulletin boards; and be sure youre dealing with someone that both you and your child know and trust before giving out this information via e-mail.
Get to know the Internet and any services your child uses.
Never allow a child to arrange a face-to-face meeting with another computer user without parental permission and supervision.
Never respond to messages or bulletin board items that are suggestive, obscene, belligerent, threatening or make you feel uncomfortable.
Encourage your children to tell you if they encounter such messages.
Talk with your children about what they can and cannot do online.
Check out blocking, filtering and ratings. Realize that filtering programs can't protect your child from all dangers in cyberspace. Filtering programs are not a substitute for good judgment or critical thinking. With or without filters, kids and their parents need to be Internet savvy.
Consider keeping the computer in a family room rather than a child's bedroom.
Get to know your children's online friends just as you get to know all of their other friends.
If you suspect a crime
Contact the Moorestown Police Department (856) 235-0130, Emergencies dial 911
