Criminal Alert Network

The Criminal Alert Network (CAN) is an e-mail notification system sponsored by
the Indiana Attorney General's Office. This web based application allows Indiana
residents to register for email notices on those offenders currently registered as
sexual offenders as well as any new offenders moving within the State of Indiana
where the offender's residence is within a reasonably specified radius of an address
registered by the user during the sign up process. Detailed description of the sign
up process can be found under the 'Sign Up Process' section. To access the sign up
page or to log in to your account please click the corresponding link. If you have
forgotten your password please click the 'log in' link.
