“No-one can’t tell, from the outside, what’s going on, on the inside.”
Failsafe Alerts encourage teenagers who would normally bottle things up, to flag a problem discreetly. To ask for help by sending a picture. The alerts make it easy to ask for help, because you don’t need to say anything. The Alert says it for you. This is useful for problems that are awkward to voice out loud.
