New York S01866 proposes a green alert system for missing military members with mental health issues.

New York S01866 amends the veterans' services law to establish a green alert system for missing military members who have mental illnesses, including PTSD or traumatic brain injuries. The system involves law enforcement agencies verifying the member's condition and location status. Alerts are issued to media outlets and dynamic message signs, aiming to locate the missing member. The alert is terminated once the member is found or the notification period ends. The bill also includes privacy guidelines and an opt-out procedure for military members.
