STUDENT CRISIS HOTLINE CALLS NEAR RECORD


By Colorado Newsline

The anonymous tip line for Colorado students to report safety concerns received over 29,000 submissions last school year, the second-highest yearly total in its history.

There were 29,302 Safe2Tell reports in the 2025-26 school year, according to new data from the Colorado attorney general’s office. After rising for each of the previous four years, the number of reports was down from a peak of 31,117 in the 2024-25 school year.

“When a student speaks up about a friend who is struggling or a threat to their school, they’re doing something that takes courage and compassion,” Attorney General Phil Weiser said in a statement.

“Nearly 30,000 times last school year, someone chose to take that step. Behind those reports are thousands of examples of schools, law enforcement, and mental health professionals stepping in to help,” Weiser said.
