National Runaway Safeline

The Green Light Project is a cornerstone of National Runaway Prevention Month each year.  #NRPM2018 partners secure landmarks and buildings in their communities to light up green throughout November.

Below are some of the many participating buildings and landmarks from 2018:

  1. 1. Centennial Wheel at the Navy Pier in Chicago, IL


    2. Nassau County Youth Services Legislature Building in New York

  2. 3. ACH Child and Family in Fort Worth, TX

  3. 4. Mahalo City and County of Honolulu


    5. Safe Place of Monroe, Owen and Greene County

While the 2018 National Runaway Prevention Month is over, we encourage everyone to continue these critical conversations to “shine a light” on these issues all year round! If you’re not already a NRPM partner, please reach out to Rachel Reynolds, Outreach & Prevention Specialist, at rreynolds@1800RUNAWAY.org to learn more.

March 2024 Volunteer of the Month – Copy

We’re excited to spotlight Nissa Petrewski, who has been voted as National Runaway Safeline’s Volunteer of the Month for March 2024. This is Nissa’s second time receiving this acknowledgement from the NRS Team, initially being celebrated in April of 2022.

Nissa’s was introduced to NRS at the Chicago Volunteer Expo hosted at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum. She was immediately drawn to the details of the organization’s training and preparation for volunteers. Inspired, she decided to complete training and take an active role on NRS’s front lines.

January 2024 Volunteer of the Month

The National Runaway Safeline is thrilled to announce Jackie Barron as the January 2024 volunteer of the month. Jackie’s path to volunteering with NRS was paved with empathy and a desire to make a positive impact. Growing up in a challenging family environment, Jackie often found herself in the “fixer” role (having a keen sense of responsibility, often prioritizing the needs of other before her own), even at a young age. This understanding of adversity and resilience led her to seek out opportunities to give back, ultimately leading her to NRS.
