This petition is asking Canada to create an At Risk Alert for vulnerable missing children, such as non-verbal autistic children, who may not qualify for an Amber Alert because there is no evidence of an abduction. Getting information to the public sooner could help bring these children home safely and save lives.

RIP Parker Wells 😞 our heartfelt condolences go out to his family and all who knew him.
