Say Something Anonymous Reporting System

Norwalk-La Mirada Unified School District has officially launched the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System in middle and high schools, providing a safe and secure way for youth and adults to speak up about threats and concerning behaviors.

The Say Something Anonymous Reporting System teaches the warning signs of potential violence and provides a mobile app, website, and telephone hotline for users to submit tips 24/7/365 to a dedicated National Crisis Center for analysis and response. The Say Something Anonymous Reporting System is for any type of serious concerns about students who may be struggling or potentially violent. “Tipsters” can send reports on anything from school threats they’ve seen or overheard to personal crises including sexual harassment, self-harm, abuse, bullying, and depression.

Students can submit a tip directly from the button below, or navigate from the District and schools’ website homepages by clicking the "Submit A Tip” icon. The free mobile app is available for download from the Apple App Store and Google Play. Students can also submit tips through the hotline by calling 1-844-5-SAYNOW.

When credible tips are received, the National Crisis Center notifies a team of school-based representatives to act on those tips. In cases of imminent threat, the National Crisis Center contacts the local 911 dispatch and involves law enforcement. This enables school administrators and law enforcement to work together to effectively prevent shootings, suicide, bullying, self-harm and other forms of violence and victimization.

The Say Something Anonymous Reporting System is a youth violence prevention program from the national nonprofit organization Sandy Hook Promise (SHP), which provides the program and training at no cost to the district. The Say Something Anonymous Reporting System is the only anonymous system and National Crisis Center exclusively serving schools. Critical to its proven success is the Say Something training that teaches youth and adults the warning signs of potential violence and self-harm. 

More than 5,000 schools and school districts nationwide are participating in the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System, protecting millions of students and educators. Locally, administrators and “Say Something” response teams at each school have been training with the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System since February 29, 2024, and middle and high school students have been learning how to use the system since April 8, 2024.
