The PA Office of the Attorney General has opened an anonymous tipline for school safety issues called Safe 2 Say.
The program is designed for students to be able to report tips related to individual student or school safety.
Students are encouraged to:
- Look for warning signs.
- Act immediately.
- Say something.
The emphasis remains to "say something" to a trusted adult from in school or outside of school. However, if a trusted adult is not available, this tipline can be accessed three ways--the app, a website, or a phone number.
The anonymous tipline has a three-stage process:
- Tips are submitted.
- The 24/7 Crisis Center triages the tip for action.
- Local Law Enforcement and School Officials partner to intervene and help individuals and schools remain safe.
