Lesson Overview

1.7 – Writing a Crisis Code Word You Can Use: A crisis code word is a quiet signal that says “I need help” without drawing attention. Choose a simple word or emoji you can text or say that sounds normal to others but has a hidden meaning between you and your trusted person. Tell only people you fully trust what it means and when to act. Keep it short and natural, like “pineapple” or “checklist,” so it blends into everyday talk. The goal is to communicate safety needs without adding risk. Practice using it calmly so you don’t freeze in real moments. Your code word gives you power when your voice might shake or fail. It’s a private bridge between fear and support, built with trust and planning. Having one means you’ve created your own emergency language — quiet, smart, and life-saving.
