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.

December 2023 Volunteer of the Month

It’s not often that a nonprofit organization is lucky enough to have long-term volunteers. Fortunately, the National Runaway Safeline (NRS) has been working with John P., our December 2023 Volunteer of the Month, for more than 12 years! John finds that volunteering provides a “meaningful connection with the human experience.” He recognizes something special in helping those in need and wonders why more people aren’t drawn to the fulfilling world of volunteering.

November 2023 Volunteer of the Month

Sam began on her journey with the National Runaway Safeline (NRS) at 16, much younger than the average age of volunteers. She learned about NRS’s volunteer program through her high school\’s list of after-school activities. This led her to sign-up for what she called an eye-opening 40-hour training that was so impactful that she still uses the training material to help guide her through difficult chats. Now, as a college student at Washington University in St. Louis, Sam continues to volunteer by talking to young people and concerned adults who reach out through NRS’s chat service.
