Why CrisisGo's Safe2SpeakUp App?

CrisisGo's mission is to make it safer for adults and students to get to school, learn safely, and get back home as safely as possible. Our Safe2SpeakUP app for students helps us achieve this by establishing a system to allow students to report safety risks and be alerted to emergencies.

As everyone works together to create a safer learning environment, the safety culture of the school improves. When students are provided with an opportunity to report risks and seek assistance, schools are much more likely to be able to prevent emergencies and get students the help they need.

Here's How Your District Will Use Safe2SpeakUP

Welcome!

On this web page, you will find information that will be helpful for our staff to understand the purpose of deploying this new safety system. This site is to provide initial information to prepare you for the rollout. It is not intended to train you or provide everything you need to get started. Our project team for the school will be communicating more as we move forward and some of this information may change as we complete the onboarding process. To be transparent and keep you informed, please review the information and we look forward to working with each of you to improve our school safety culture.

How Does This Impact Students ?

Will students be tracked through the app?

When the Safet2SpeakUP application is running, you are not being tracked. CrisisGo does have GPS functionality available in the event of an emergency, however, this needs to be enabled by the user before becoming active.
How do we log in?

Once CrisisGo is downloaded, open the CrisisGo app and choose ‘Sign in with SSO.’ You can then use the same login credentials that you use to log in to your email.

What happens if I don’t have the app on my phone?

You will still receive the alert by SMS, email, or both. You will then need to work with a partner staff member who does have the app to be accounted for and to provide you with ongoing communications.

(We strongly encourage everyone to keep the CrisisGo app on their phone for the bene school safety as well as your personal safety.)
