According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), in 2020, the state of Florida had the second most amber alerts in the country. From January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2020, 200 amber alerts were issued in 39 states. Texas issued the most amber alerts with 21 percent, followed by Florida with 9 percent. However, the issue was getting an alert for all the missing children.

Hence, Instagram introduced a new type of notification from the app, last month. This was done in partnership with Meta, owner of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, so that NCMEC can show amber alerts on the Instagram app, with photographs and descriptions of the missing individuals provided by the Florida State Police. Commenting on this, Michelle DeLaune, President and CEO at the NCMEC, said, "We know that photos are a critical tool in the search for missing children and by expanding the reach to the Instagram audience, we’ll be able to share photos of missing children with so many more people."
