Slides from AMBER Alert in Indian Country Webinar

AMBER Alert in Indian Country Initiative (AAIIC) donated seven AMBER Alert toolkits to the seven Navajo Nation police districts.The toolkits include a Panasonic Toughbook Tablet, Pelican protector case, headset, webcam, scanner, and a camera. The toolkits were funded by the U.S. Department of Justice through the Ashlynne Mike AMBER Alert in Indian Country Act of 2018.

Distributions of toolkits are directly tied to facilitating the Ashlynne Mike AMBER Alert in Indian Country Act. Ashlynne Mike was an 11-year-old who was abducted and murdered in 2016. A lack of available resource in the Navajo Nation meant that an AMBER alert was not issued for 13 hours.
