The Safer Ohio School Tip Line is a free safety resource available to all Ohio schools. The tip line is an anonymous reporting system that accepts tips via call, text, webform, and mobile app 24 hours-a-day. Anyone can download the Safer Ohio School Tip Line app or use the webform

This tip line allows students and adults to anonymously share information with school officials and law enforcement about threats to student safety — whether that involves a threatened mass incident or harm to a single student.

Every tip can remain anonymous. Tip line technicians may ask for additional information, but the caller can remain anonymous or leave his or her contact information for later follow-up.

Tips submitted to 844-SaferOH (844-723-3764) are triaged and notify local school officials, law enforcement agencies, and the Ohio School Safety Center (OSSC) for action and follow-up as needed.
