In 1996, nine-year-old Amber Hagerman was abducted and murdered in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The area's Association of Radio Managers with the region's law enforcement agencies, reacted by developing a program to promptly distribute information when a child is abducted. They called the program the AMBER Plan in memory of Amber.

Since then, local, regional, and statewide AMBER Plans have facilitated the recovery of dozens of children. Kansas Attorney General Carla J. Stovall established Kansas' AMBER Plan in September 2002, and today's Attorney General Phill Kline continues to hope that the statewide alert system will deter potential abductors and quickly mobilize citizens to contact authorities with helpful information.
