Courage2ReportMO is Missouri’s confidential school violence reporting system. It is operated by the Missouri State Highway Patrol, under the Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC), and provides a safe way for students, parents, educators, and community members to share concerns before they escalate.
Background
-
Originally launched as the Missouri School Violence Hotline in 2001.

In 2019, it transitioned into the Courage2Report program as part of the Missouri School Safety Initiative.
