Staying safe while you reach out
A note about safety online
If someone may be monitoring your phone or computer, use a device they can't access. The Quick exit button instantly replaces this page with a weather website. It's a shortcut, not a privacy guarantee: it doesn't erase your browsing history or downloads, so private browsing helps too.
Outside the United States?
Contact your local emergency services, or look up a hotline in your country through the Global Modern Slavery Directory (globalmodernslavery.org).
