The Amber Alert Network Brazos Valley is a local nonprofit organization that focuses on child protection and missing person issues, working hand in hand with regional law enforcement agencies and loved ones of the missing. Formed in 2003 as an oversight committee for the Brazos Valley Regional Amber Alert notification system, our programming has expanded to meet needs associated with missing children and personal incidents. Our multi-jurisdiction and multi-disciplinary Child Abduction Response Team (CART), the Brazos Valley Child Abduction Response Team (BVCART), became the 17th team certified by the United States Department of Justice in September 2011.

We have partnered with local law enforcement on over 230 cases involving missing children and persons, helping to provide alerting assistance, raising public awareness, consulting on search efforts, and serving as a liaison with family members of the missing. We continue to provide education and training on best practices for alerting and response to local agencies and provide internet safety training to children and parents/caregivers/guardians through our partnership with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
