Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan has announced that there is a School Violence Tipline available for anyone who wants to anonymously report any threat of violence of weapons on school grounds. The new School Violence Tipline is 1-800-477-00-24. It was created to provide an anonymous way to report any threat of violence or possible weapons that may be present on school grounds in Illinois. The tipline is answered by a trained Illinois State Police telecommunicators, who will then refer the reports to local law enforcement agencies. For immediate threats of violence or harm, callers are urged to call 9-11. Again the new tipline for Illinois residents to call, in case you want to anonymously report of a possible threat on school grounds, is 1-800-477-0024.
