Kids saving kids: How statewide reporting tools can help prevent, stop school shootings


Safe2Tell is a unified statewide system where students can anonymously report concerns or threats, since research shows other students often know about a threat before it is carried out. Teams trained in risk assessment intervene before an attack can happen by contacting parents, making a welfare check, and/or talking with students. The success of the system led to the adoption of similar programs in Oregon, Nevada, and Wyoming.
