Engage survivors of domestic and sexual violence, dating violence and human trafficking with tip411.
tip411 enables survivors of abuse to contact your organization’s survivor advocates who can then respond in real time from any internet connected device, or a mobile app created exclusively for tip411 administrators, creating a two-way anonymous chat.
For people who are experiencing domestic violence it is often impossible and dangerous to make phone calls or visit with survivor advocates in person. Having tip411 available for your community significantly reduces the risks involved to survivors who need access to valuable resources.
With tip411, survivors have several options as to how they prefer to reach out for assistance. The channels include text message, custom branded (often times covertly branded) mobile apps as well as a web form.
It is critical for survivors of domestic abuse to be able to reach out for the assistance that they need safely and securely, tip411 provides these vital communication channels.
While the national domestic violence hotline has been providing online live chat and text messaging for more than a decade, local hotlines often only have the capacity to take calls, tip411 can change the way survivors communicate with organizations to seek help.
“The public plays a crucial role with helping state police identify both those perpetuating this crime and those being trafficked. (tip411) gives victims and the public a safe and secure way to report human trafficking. We especially want those being trafficked to come forward and use these tools to secure your freedom and safety. It is an opportunity for you to take back control of your life.”
-Col. Gary T. Settle
Virginia State Police Superintendent
“The biggest problem we saw was our citizens were wanting to help us and give us information but they did not want to be associated with the case and be looked at as a “narc” and, unfortunately with Facebook, as much as you make your profile private, there is always ways around it. There is no better time than now to gain the trust and respect from your community.”
- Officer Caitlin Horne
Bismarck, ND Police Department
