The Founder Of The AMBER Alert Concept  and Child Safety Advocate Pastor Charles Williams

The Founder Of The AMBER Alert Concept

United States Senate Washington D.C. Dear Pastor Charles Williams  I appreciate your advocacy on behalf of missing children. Your work is an inspiration for all of us. Sherrod Brown United States Senator -OHIO- February 26 2008

The Concept & Creation of what is known as the AMBER ALERT SYSTEM in the U.S. & CHILD RESCUE ALERT SYSTEM in the U.K.  & the term "BREAKING NEWS" was founded & created exclusively by Pastor Charles Williams Of Fort Worth, Texas In January Of 1996 while serving as the "Senior Pastor Of Refreshing Springs Ministries",currently Pastor Williams now serves  at a Mega Church in Columbus, Ohio where he and his family now resides.


The AMBER PLAN*tm was created in 1996 as a powerful legacy to 9-year old Amber Hagerman, A little girl, "View Slide Show" who was kidnapped and murdered while riding her bicycle in Arlington, Texas.. The tragedy shocked and outraged the entire community.. Pastor: Charles Williams exclusively contacted radio station W.B.A.P.  In Arlington Texas,and presented to talk show host Mark Davis, "as witnessed by the 10's of thousands of listeners" the plan that is now known as the Amber Plan*tm.The Plan That Pastor:Charles Williams exclusively Suggested, Is that they interrupt broadcast with Special Alerts over the air waves as soon as it happens "on the same order of an emergency weather alert"so that they could help prevent such incidents in the future.. Many Other callers contacted the station following that first call By Pastor: Charles Williams"as witnessed by the 10's of thousands of listeners" and echo the fact that this would be a great plan to implement for the safety of all children..


In Response to the communities concern for the safety of our local children..The plan which was exclusively suggested by Pastor: Charles Williams"as witnessed by the 10's of thousands of listeners" was then taken to the Dallas/Fort Worth Association of Radio Managers teamed up with local law enforcement agencies in northern Texas and developed this innovative early warning system to help find abducted children..Statistics show that,when abducted,a child's greatest enemy is time..

Child Safety Advocate & Founder Pastor Williams grants interview to N.B.C. News "Pictured Below"

Pastor Williams

Pastor: Charles Williams, has been written about in articles all over the world in association with the creation of this AMBER PLAN & Amber Alert, But no one new the full name of the caller to the radio show on that day.. Because Pastor Charles Williams Felt that it was only right to stay out of the picture to allow Amber's mother and the family time to heal from such a tragic loss of their 9 year old daughter whom we often continue to pray for.. Finally after 9 years,Pastor Charles Williams felt it was now time for everyone to put "The Name" with "The Voice" that Founded &"Created The Concept" of what is now known as, and frequently used all around the world today as the AMBER PLAN & AMBER ALERT.."The Nationally And Internationally Recognized and Accredited Founder of the Amber Alert Concept" Is Pastor Charles Williams, "The one single act officially recognized and cited by the U.S. Department Of Justice former Attorney General as the seed into the ground which today many people are harvesting from" In Most Articles Pastor: Charles Williams is known as Concern Citizen, Resident,Out Raged Citizen And Many Other Titles. The emergence of this bright, smart, and intelligent"black man" who is the founder of this concept of the Amber Alert has been viewed as a threat to some, for no other reason than that He is a black man,whom they are extremely jealous of,and having a hard time accepting the truth.

But the truth and name of the person that exclusively carried those titles for 9 years in silence Is:Pastor: Charles Williams of Fort Worth ,Texas/ Founder Creator The AMBER PLAN & Amber Alert System..Since coming forward Pastor Williams has been interviewed by the media across this country that has stretched around the world from many of the most trusted names in broadcasting A.B.C. News, C.B.S. News, N.B.C. News ,Washington Post, Government T.V., O.N.N. Network, American Urban Radio Network, The C.B.S.

History of the Amber Alert & Child Rescue Alert Concept and its further development.

 

AMBER child abduction alerts across the country have now led to the safe return of more than 500 abducted children since the idea was conceived by Pastor Charles Williams of Fort Worth, Texas on January 15 1996 at 9:00am and furthur developed by Dallas-Fort Worth area broadcasters in late 1996

Dallas-Fort Worth broadcasters teamed with local police to develop an early warning system to help find abducted children using radio stations & Emergency Alert System (EAS) equipment.


The plan was created as a legacy to nine-year-old Amber Hagerman, who was kidnapped while riding her bicycle in Arlington, and then brutally murdered in 1996.

The Primary EAS stations in Dallas-Fort Worth W.B.A.P. News Talk 820 agreed to immediately air messages about abducted children in situations that meet certain criteria.

The criteria was designed to eliminate family custody disputes and disseminate information about kidnappings within the critical first three hours to an area where public participation has the most chance of locating a missing child.

Other radio and television stations in the market agreed to immediately rebroadcast AMBER alerts or to broadcast the information to their audiences as quickly as possible.

The broadcasts include information about the child, the abductor (such as physical descriptions) as well as information about the abductor & vehicle, or other information which could lead to the child's recovery and the apprehension of the suspect.

Soon other cities in Texas & across the Nation & around the World soon set up their own AMBER plans and the idea Of Pastor Charles Williams has been adopted across the nation and around the world.

In 2003, President George W. Bush signed into law a national AMBER plan framework to help the 92 existing AMBER Alert programs, and ensure a seamless network to protect children in those areas without local AMBER plans.

Teams made up of law enforcement, broadcasters, and highway safety personnel from all 50 states, the territories and the District of Columbia gathered in Dallas in 2005 for the first-ever National Training Conference on AMBER Alert to discuss the national strategy and examine state and local strategies for strengthening the AMBER Alert system across the country.

For more information on the Amber Alert & Plan, e-mail us at amberalertfounder@helloworld.com

Following that first call to the radio station W.B.A.P in January of 1996 by Pastor Charles Williams where He suggested the idea of using this concept to radio host Mark Davis and news director Dan Potter to the"which we have written proof of" from them.

The radio station managers in the Dallas/Ft Worth Market who further developed the first Amber plan after receiving the "Concept" from Pastor Charles Williams are listed below They never sought credit or been officially recognized, because as a matter of policy by the USDOJ and the NCMEC they do not give endorsements as such.
 for the project in which they further developed after the call to W.B.A.P. from Pastor Charles Williams. The group even trademarked the name AMBER and "gave the work of that groups rights" "not the concept" to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

The broadcasters were members of the Association of Radio Managers, a group that put aside their intense competition in the Dallas/Fort Worth market to work together and use their resources jointly to serve the public.

The group included Jerry Bobo and the late Michael Spears of KRLD-AM, Tyler Cox of WBAP, Dan Bennett of KLIF, Jennifer Grim and J.D. Freeman of KDMX and Scott Savage of KEWS. Spears came up with the special tone to broadcast the alert and activate stations& EAS equipment.

Broadcasters were disgusted that after all the expense and work broadcasters invested in 1996 in the new digital Emergency Alert System, local and state officials paid no attention to the tremendous communication tool radio and television stations offered to provide.

After the horrific kidnapping and murder of 9-year-old Amber Hagerman, listeners to a KDMX radio talk show wrote letters asking if there was anything broadcasters could do to alert the public to kidnappings. The ARMS broadcasters read the letters and came up with the idea of using stations, the letters came well after the call to W.B.A.P. from Pastor Charles Williams whose call came hours after the child was abducted and while she was still missing it was He Pastor Williams who first suggested the use of EAS equipment to alert the public to the kidnapping of children and that call is the call which is recognized with its content by the United States Department Of Justice.

Broadcasters & Dee Anderson from the Arlington Police Department and other officials meet at the building where W.B.A.P. is located in Arlington, Texas to discuss and adopt this plan. Anderson now is Tarrant County sheriff and continues to be active in promoting AMBER.

The broadcasters then teamed with local police agencies throughout the market to develop the early warning system to help find abducted children in 1997. They named the program AMBER as a legacy to the young girl who was dragged from her bike while riding in a suburban shopping center in 1996.

The Primary EAS stations in the Dallas-Fort Worth market, WBAP and KRLD, agreed to immediately air messages about abducted children in situations that meet certain criteria. The broadcast organizers worked with police to develop criteria and guidelines that became the template for other cities in Texas and then other states to develop their own AMBER plans.

The criteria were designed to eliminate family custody disputes and speed up dissemination of information about kidnappings within the critical first three hours to an area where public participation has the most chance of locating a missing child.

Other radio stations in the market agreed to immediately rebroadcast AMBER alerts or to broadcast the information to their audiences as quickly as possible. The program was an immediate success and television stations quickly agreed to air the alerts, too.

The first child saved by an AMBER alert - Rae-Leigh Bradbury - was returned to her parents in Arlington, Texas, as a direct result of an AMBER alert broadcast by KRLD radio. KRLD General Manager Jerry Bobo and Amber Alert Founder Pastor Charles Williams both states that they still get emotional when evey a confirmed abduction takes place .

Rae-Leigh is seven now and about to start the second grade in Fort Worth. Her picture is on the cover of a new book,The Lost and Found. The photo book about kidnapped children, edited by Joann Donnellan, will be published by NCMEC in July 2006.Also the new book by the founder of the Amber Alert is now out "Faces Of The Amber Alert" can be purchased at any major retailer.

Donnellan was working at the America's Most Wanted television show when the Dallas-Fort Worth AMBER plan began drawing favorable publicity across the country. In 2000 she joined NCMEC to lead an effort to take the AMBER plan nationwide. She held her first forum with Dee Anderson and Tyler Cox from Dallas and representatives of five other plans then existing on at that time.

In October, 2001, when NCMEC kicked off a program to launch AMBER nationwide, 16 kidnapped kids had been recovered by 20 AMBER plans.

Now there are AMBER plans in place in all 50 states and in other countries around the world. and an incredible 323 children have been saved.

In 2003, President George W. Bush "Pictured with Pastor Charles Williams" signed into law a proposal by Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, (R-Texas) to create a national AMBER plan framework to help the 92 AMBER Alert programs existing then and to ensure a seamless network to protect children in those areas without local AMBER plans.

Teams made up of law enforcement, broadcasters and highway safety personnel from all 50 states, the territories and the District of Columbia gathered in Dallas for the first-ever National Training Conference on AMBER Alert to discuss the national strategy and examine state and local strategies for strengthening the AMBER Alert system across the country.

Now the Department of Justice organizes conferences across the country to train law enforcement primarily. Some broadcasters are included in the sessions and special courses aimed at broadcasters have been created in South Carolina.

In Texas Gov. Rick Perry established by executive order a State AMBER Plan and directed the Texas Department of Public Safety to take responsibility for investigating child abductions and issuing alerts to areas of the state that do not have local AMBER plans in place.

  A.B.C. News Report- Pastor Charles Williams

That being said it should not have come as no surprise that Pastor Charles Williams came forth again this time with a phone call and suggestion to a radio station on air in January 1996 with another idea " What We Now Know As The AMBER ALERT SYSTEM" It has always been his God given nature as a pastor to get involved in situations that will either establish communities or bring communities together for a common good. Today the Amber Alert Concept is used all over the world, reuniting abducted children with their families, In Europe its called the Child rescue Alert. Everything that uses the name Amber Alert comes from the Concept which was created by a little known black pastor by the name of Pastor Charles Williams, who's book "Faces Of The Amber Alert" which has received a lifetime contract from it's publisher features on it's cover congrats from President George W Bush for the creation of the Amber Alert System, Pastor Williams also unveiled the Amber Alert Stamp for his now Home State of OHIO, Pastor Williams is now a part of Black History, placed there by the State of California, January 13 is known as Amber Alert Awareness Day across the nation, and in his now home State of Ohio City of Columbus they now honor Pastor Charles Williams on every January 13. Pastor Williams has been interviewed by every major media network, ie, NBC, ABC,FOX,CBS, Government T.V., just to name a few, and articles in countless of news papers around the world, A movie called Amber Story which airs on the life time network is based on the Concept in which Pastor Williams created, and He is also a fashion designer. As founder of the Amber Alert Pastor Williams recently helped a grieving mother who's husband killed himself and their 3 kids, the mother had no way to pay for final expenses, Pastor Williams because He is who He is saw to it that over $50.000 of final expenses was taken care of and that the funeral and burials were fit for a King & Queen, at the cemetery Pastor Williams presented the family with a statement of a balance -0- He doesn't do this all the time but He again felt led by God to eliminate the burden from off this young grieving mother. Pastor Williams also saw to it that residents in an apartment complex had their lights re-connected after the owner skipped out on the bill in Fort Worth, Texas, even though He did not live in the complex, Pastor Williams rallied the support from within the community to pay a $7000.000 electric bill within 6 hours time. That's the kind of person Pastor Williams is, it is clear that He lives with the "Favor of God Upon His Life" which enables Him to do what He has done. He is the Founder of a world wide concept / movement "Amber Alert Concept" and he gives back into the community.

To His family of 4 daughters He is Dad, To His Wife of 24 years He is called Honey, And to God he is a faithful servant and glad to be called a friend of God.
