Safe2Say Something is a youth violence prevention program run by the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General that teaches people how to spot the warning signs, especially on social media, of individuals who may be a threat to themselves or others and to “say something” BEFORE it’s too late.
How It Works
Step 1 – Submit an anonymous tip one of three ways:
- Call the 24/7 tip-line: 844.SAF2SAY (723.2729).
- Go online: www.safe2saypa.org.
- Use the mobile app.
In an emergency, call 911.
Step 2 – All tips received by the 24/7 crisis center are:
- Reviewed by a crisis center analyst.
- Triaged and categorized as either life safety or non-life safety.
- Sent to school officials and law enforcement (as needed) via text, email, and/or phone call within seconds.
Step 3 – After officials receive a tip:
- School officials and law enforcement (as needed) act immediately to investigate, assess, and intervene with reported at-risk individuals.
- At-risk individuals receive the help they need BEFORE they get to the point of hurting themselves or others.
- School officials report their outcomes on the Safe2Say Something platform and close out the tip, ensuring accountability for every tip submitted.
