We are allowing a safe place to be themselves, Maye said. Even if they cant be it at home they can at least be it here so they are not so depressed, they are not thinking about suicide they dont want to end their lives they actually want to start living their lives their way.The trained staff members will be visible and recognizable to students. Each will have a special identification badge saying they are part of the OUT for Safe School program.To make sure that they know that this person wearing this badge has their back, Maye said. No matter whats going on in their life or during their day they can come into our classroom or they can find someone with this badge and they will always have a safe person to talk to.Those who were trained will now be able to train the others in the district to keep the wave of support growing.For me honestly it gives me hope. It gives me hope for the future, Maye said. It helps me see and realize that these youth are going to have support and that they are going to have the ability to grow into adulthood.The Dallas Police Department and staff from the Dallas library system also attended the training because of their work with local youth.Photo Credit: NBC 5
