Text 2 Stop It! was initially piloted in a Maryland school system as a means for students to report incidents of bullying anonymously and comfortably. Text 2 Stop It! sent the collected information to the school authorities who immediately intervened. Within the first 60 days of implementation, Text 2 Stop It! responded to over 45 tips referencing bullying, planned violence, weapons in schools, drug use, drug distribution, cyber bullying, and planned suicide attempts. Text 2 Stop It! was instrumental in the passing of House Bill 669, which recommended that all schools in the state of Maryland develop text hotlines like Text 2 Stop It! for their students.
Text 2 Them, Inc. was founded in 2009 to address one simple question. "If everyone is texting each other, then shouldn't they also be able to text their doctor, school or other organizations?" This was the start of Text 2 Them Software Platform. Since 2009 Text 2 Them has secured multiple patents regarding two-way texting. It is this Technology that Text 2 Them provides to Text 2 Stop It! which has allowed them to save countless lives of people who prefer texting when they need help.
