1. What happened

Submission guidance
How to Submit
Clear, careful, and specific submissions are more useful than rushed or overly broad statements.
This page explains how to prepare information in a way that is safer, clearer, and easier to review.
Recommended structure
What to include
2. Where and when
Include location and time if known. Even approximate time ranges may still be useful if exact dates are unavailable.
3. Who was affected
Identify the affected person, group, school, community, site, or area only as far as is safe and necessary for understanding.
What can help
Helpful materials may include written notes, photographs, video, maps, screenshots, policy documents, school notices, correspondence, or contextual records.
If you are unsure whether something is useful, it is better to describe it carefully than to overstate what it proves.
State uncertainty openly
If you are uncertain about a date, identity, sequence, or interpretation, say so directly. Clear uncertainty is more useful than false certainty.
The goal is careful documentation, not dramatic wording.
Reduce unnecessary exposure
Do not include sensitive personal details unless they are necessary. Avoid exposing the identities of others without strong reason and clear awareness of risk.
Read the risk notice before sharing anything that may create safety, privacy, or retaliation concerns.
