Mattie's Call is a law-enforcement-initiated public notification system used to locate missing elderly or otherwise disabled persons in the American state of Georgia. The system was established as part of House Bill 728 by the Georgia General Assembly in 2006 and is named in reference to 67-year-old Mattie Moore, an Alzheimer's disease patient who wandered away from her Atlanta home in 2004 and was found dead 8 months later.
