It does as an Ohio non profit organization seek to keep our Mid Ohio communities safer for our children by trying to educate law enforcement officials, the news media and general public on the Amber Alert system; and, on ways to better inform and enlist help from the general public when a child is missing and in danger of serious physical harm or death."
