When to Use SafeVoice
- If you or someone you know is being bullied
- If you are worried about a friend who is sad or
doing risky things.
- If someone tries to touch you or a friend in a
way that makes you feel uncomfortable OR, if you see violence or weapons at school you can SPEAK UP!

Telling vs. Tattling
Keeping school safe Someone could be badly hurt Problem is urgent and important An adult can help solve the problem Avoiding Blame Feelings are hurt You think you will gain something from tattling Problem is made bigger, not solved
Telling an Adult Tattling on a Classmate
Use SafeVoice to report serious problems and harmful bullying, not when you have a playground argument or someone looks at you funny, OK?
Let’s be kind

Who receives the SafeVoice Reports?
- Law enforcement is engaged immediately for ‘911’
situations
- A team here at your school of administrators and
counselors receives the reports multiple times a day and will start taking appropriate actions to intervene and support
- You won’t hear directly about the response because
reporting is anonymous, but you can feel better knowing you stood up for a friend
