Reporting Hotline – 1-844-572-9669
Most North Carolina public school districts have adopted the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System to meet the reporting guidelines and standards developed by the N.C. Department of Public Instruction and the Center for Safer Schools.
Sandy Hook Promise (SHP), a national nonprofit, developed the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System (SS-ARS), which allows Cumberland County Schools (CCS) youth and adults to securely submit anonymous safety concerns. The system enables school administrators and law enforcement to create effective interventions and to help prevent violence, suicide, bullying, self-harm and other forms of threatening behavior.
Designed specifically for use by students in grades 6-12, SS-ARS provides three reporting platforms (mobile app, website, and 24/7 phone hotline) for users to submit tips. When credible tips are received, the crisis center will notify school-based representatives. In cases of an imminent threat, the crisis center will contact local 911 dispatch and involve law enforcement.
