The Importance of Arrest Alert — Case study From an Organization We Serve:

Volunteer Was Arrested: December 6th 2023

Volunteer was arrested on child pornography charges.

Organization received the arrest alert at 10:27 pm on December 6th.

Organization then received that the individual was released at 5:30 pm on December 7th.

—If this organization had not been utilizing Arrest Alert, that volunteer could have easily entered their organization after being released from jail with nobody knowing what happened.
