Florida has AMBER alerts, Blue Alerts, Silver Alerts and Sex Offender Alerts, but starting July 1, you can now receive Purple Alerts. These notifications go out when an adult, suffering from mental, cognitive, intellectual, or developmental disabilities is missing, but does not meet criteria for a Silver Alert.
The Purple Alert plan was established by the Florida Legislature and signed into law by Gov. Ron DeSantis, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.
