Amber Hagerman is the girl for whom the AMBER Alert system was named. Hagerman was abducted in Texas in 1996. The effort to implement a national system to quickly spread information about abducted children (called an AMBER Alert to memorialize Hagerman) began in July 1996 and continues to develop to this day.
