R.E.S.C.Q. Goals & Objectives-We have implemented a school support program for the prevention and reporting of school crime in Sonoma County schools. It is our goal to reduce violence in our schools and provide greater protection of our students, staff and community, by way of this communication vehicle intended to aid in the investigation, arrest and prosecution of individuals responsible for contemplating or committing acts of violence against our schools.

Dedicated Phone Line-A 24 hour, toll free phone line, (877) 570-7770, records calls from students and community members reporting threats and acts of crime against students, staff and facilities. Messages and information received on the R.E.S.C.Q. line are passed on to individual school/district personnel for investigation and handling. When the toll-free number is called, it automatically pages RESIG staff for review of the call after which the appropriate school/district personnel are called to receive the actual message.

Reward System-The R.E.S.C.Q. Program provides cash rewards of up to $1,000 to persons reporting individuals who are responsible for crimes or conspiracies against Sonoma County Schools. Rewards are provided through RESIG Safety Funds or program donations received from the Business Community.

R.E.S.C.Q. Posters-11 x 17” posters for schools to display on campus with an overlay of the school name displayed, as well as posters for distribution and use by supporting businesses and support organizations are now available in both English and Spanish.
In addition, posters are available to be made for acts of vandalism, violence, or threats against our schools.

R.E.S.C.Q. Pencils & Cups- Program pencils and cups with the R.E.S.C.Q. phone number are being distributed to schools for distribution to students and staff. We are actively soliciting business sponsorships to assist in funding the program. Materials may be ordered without charge by completing the Supply Order Form and faxing it to RESIG.

R.E.S.C.Q. Committee-The program development, implementation and ongoing monitoring involve a community effort by RESIG Board & Staff, School Personnel, School Support Groups, Police and Sheriff Departments, and the Sonoma County Business Community interested in supporting this public education project.
