Many #AMBERAlerts in Ontario are resolved as a direct result of public information provided during an alert. You have the power to help bring a child home safely. #AMBERAlertAwarenessDay
In the last 5 years, more than 90% of #AMBERAlerts in Ontario resulted in the safe recovery of an abducted child. Thank you to all who keep an eye and ear out when an alert is issued. Your support can mean the difference between life and death. #AMBERAlertAwarenessDay
