Integrate the power of the Say Something program’s educational components with the technological capabilities of our anonymous reporting system.
About the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System Program
With the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System (Say Something ARS), students become Upstanders who report warning signs and threats to Trusted Adults by text, app, phone, or website. Tips are vetted and triaged by highly-skilled crisis counselors in our accredited, bilingual National Crisis Center. Local school/law enforcement response teams are promptly alerted to life-safety reports to ensure swift intervention in critical safety issues. Additional training for school district personnel and local law enforcement and emergency services is required.
How Say Something ARS Works
To successfully implement the Say Something ARS program and support students in creating a culture of Upstanders who help keep their school safe all year long, Sandy Hook Promise has developed a five-stage program cycle.
In addition, our Collections feature below conveniently bundles together curated resources from each stage of the Program Cycle.
