Governor Moore Signs “Purple Alert” Bill
Maryland Governor Wes Moore has signed a bill into law creating a “Purple Alert” that will be used by law enforcement or other agencies if a person with an intellectual developmental disability or brain injury is missing. The new alert joins other color-coded alerts for the state – amber for children and silver for senior citizens. West Virginia also passed legislation for a Purple alert this past session.
