Hi Jillian. I know Wisconsin has a Green Alert. In our state we try real hard to fend off the various alerts. Silver, Green, etc. Most of these would fall under our endangered missing person alerts. We feel that we have much more flexibility that way and it takes away the large public education piece. Everyone understands what a missing person is but many don’t know what a silver alert, or green alert, or blue alert is. I always refer to the old terrorist threat color code – no one every knew what they meant.
