If you think someone is following you, do these things right away:

1. Stay calm and walk like you know where you are going.
2. Do NOT go home. Go to a busy, public place instead (store, restaurant, school, or police station).
3. Cross the street or change direction to see if the person keeps following.
4. Use your phone to call 911 (or your country’s emergency number) or call a parent or trusted adult. Talk loudly so people hear you.
5. If you can’t call, yell “Help!” or “I don’t know you!” to get people’s attention and find someone nearby to help.
6. Go inside a place with other people and tell an adult there what is happening.
7. Try to remember what the person looks like and any car details, but don’t stare or stop to talk to them.
8. After you are safe, tell a trusted adult or the police what happened.

Trust your feelings. If something feels wrong, get to safety and get help.
