This past weekend I aided my friend through a very serious struggle. One that could have been handled easier if she had access to a hotline. But she didn't know the number of the hotline, and was therefore unable to call it. Then I remembered seeing a student ID from Chicago where a number of hotlines were printed on the back of the card, so that every student had easy access to them. This kind of easy access to these hotlines could have made the entire situation a lot easier to handle, which is exactly why I am petitioning the Wake County Public School System to begin printing the numbers of hotlines on the backs of their students' student IDs. Some of the hotlines would include, but would not be limited to:

Suicide Prevention Lifeline

Cyber Bullying Hotline

Domestic Violence Hotline

Trevor Lifeline

NC STD hotline

Interact of Wake crisis line
