Information shared from the student or community member can be related to harmful, dangerous, or violent activity that is directed at schools, students or staff members or the threat of these activities. Some of these activities range from violence, suicide, weapons, domestic violence, inappropriate relationships, illicit drug use, threatening behavior, bullying, cyberbullying, self-harm and other acts of victimization that impact youth/students in all participating NE schools. The Safe2Help NE app allows you to submit anonymous and secure school safety related information to a 24/7 staffed crisis center. The crisis center is housed with the Boys Town National Hotline.
