Chamber Passed·3/11/26

Establishes a statewide turquoise alert system in Arizona for missing persons under 65 years old.

Arizona SB1740 amends the state's statutes to establish a turquoise alert system for missing persons under 65 years old. This system is designed to issue and coordinate statewide alerts when a person goes missing under unexplained or suspicious circumstances. The bill mandates that law enforcement agencies develop and implement training criteria for their employees involved in missing person cases, including supervisors and communication dispatchers. The training must cover the turquoise alert system and state policies on locating missing, abducted, or runaway children.
