As the Alerta AMBER Regional Conference in Monterrey, Mexico, was being held August 29-31, 2023, Chihuahua Regional Coordinator of the Gender-Based Violence Unit of the Chihuahua North Prosecutor's Office Yubia Yumiko Ayala Narvaez was able to immediately connect and coordinate with Mexico’s National AMBER Alert coordinator Carlos Morales Rojas on the release of a national alert for the abduction of a 1-year-old girl who was taken after her parents were murdered in a home invasion. This national alert supported the amazing work of the Chihuahua state officials who sprang into action, issuing an Alerta AMBER following the report of the August 28th abduction. The national alert was issued just a few hours following the state alert.
Media and public response came swiftly. By the next day, the kidnappers, likely aware the case was receiving national attention, abandoned the baby in a doorway in Ciudad Juarez. A woman found the infant and immediately called 911. Less than 30 hours after the issuance of the state AMBER Alert, 1-year-old baby Angela was safely recovered.
Narvaez and Rojas met for the first time as they arrived for the conference. Just one of so many examples of how incredibly important regional events such as this one is the ongoing work to build preparedness for effective response to cases of endangered missing and abducted children in Mexico and the U.S. through cross-border collaboration and planning.
AMBER Alert Training and Technical Assistance Program (AATTAP) Program Administrator Janell Rasmussen and Project Coordinator for International and Territorial Programs Yesenia Leon-Baron participated in the event hosted by the U.S. Department of Justice Overseas Prosecutorial Development Assistance and Training Section (OPDAT). A bit of history about Alerta AMBER: Funding from the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement (INL) and OPDAT brought AMBER Alert to Mexico over a decade ago, and AATTAP has provided ongoing training and technical assistance support in the U.S. through its Southern Border Initiative (SBI) since that time. The OPDAT TIP team continues to support the growth and strengthening of Alerta AMBER Mexico thanks to continued INL funding.

Such important work! What an incredibly talented team!
Great to see this collaboration, many children and families will benefit!
In our ever-changing media landscape, being able to quickly and effectively share information about a missing child case is critical. Hence, our new class that recently kicked off in Dallas: “The Modern Public Information Officer (PIO): Communication During a Missing Child Incident.” Held at the Dallas Children's Advocacy Center, the inaugural training session was led by law enforcement technology expert Ed Bertola and former crime reporter/”America’s Most Wanted” contributor Jon Leiberman, who shared a wealth of best practices.
