The Catasauqua Area School District is committed to the safety and well-being of our students and educators. As a part of that effort, we are rolling out the "Safe2Say Something" program with the rest of Pennsylvania. "Safe2Say Something" is an anonymous reporting system designed to help students recognize the warning signs and signals (especially on social media) of individuals who may be a threat to themselves or others. The "Safe2Say Something" program trains students on warning sign and to take them seriously. The training also teaches students to act quickly and to get help by talking to a trusted adult and/or by reporting it anonymously via phone, mobile app, or website to the Pennsylvania "Safe2Say Something" Crisis Center.
Safe2Say Something is based on a three-step system:
- An anonymous tip is submitted via one of the following options:
- Website: https://www.safe2saypa.org/
- Tipline: 1-844-SAF2SAY
- Mobile App for Apple and Android Devices
- All calls and tips are received by the 24/7 S2SS Crisis Center.
- A Safe2Say Ssomething Crisis Center analyst receives and reviews tip information.
- The tip is triaged and categorized as either life safety or non-life safety.
- The tip is then sent to school officials and law enforcement (as needed) via text, email, and/or phone call.
- School officials and law enforcement intervene and/or offer assistance
- School officials and law enforcement (as needed) investigate, assess, and intervene with reported at-risk individuals.
- School officials report their outcomes into the Safe2Say Something platform and close out the tip, ensuring accountability for every tip submitted.
- An anonymous tip is submitted via one of the following options:
