Indigo Alert for Vulnerable Kids | Canada News

A Calgary mom is rallying the nation for a new emergency alert system—called the “Indigo Alert”—specifically designed to help find vulnerable, non-verbal children with autism who wander off. After an 11-year-old boy named Parker went missing and didn’t qualify for an Amber Alert due to lack of suspected abduction, Jennifer Ball launched a petition that’s now gathered over 14,000 signatures. Her push highlights a critical gap: current alerts often miss children who can’t communicate their whereabouts. Inspired by Alberta’s existing Silver Alert for seniors, officials are now reviewing the system, with community support swelling as volunteers pour in from across the region. This movement isn’t just about one child—it’s a call for inclusive, proactive safety measures that protect every child, no matter their abilities.
