BAILEY, CO — July 2, 2025 — The “I Love U Guys” Foundation, a national leader in school safety training and emergency response protocols, is proud to announce a partnership with CENTEGIX, the nation’s leading provider of wearable safety technology for K-12 schools.
This collaboration enhances the practical implementation of the Foundation’s Standard Response Protocol (SRP) and Standard Reunification Method (SRM) by integrating them with CENTEGIX’s innovative CrisisAlert™ solution and CENTEGIX Safety Platform™. Together, the Foundation and CENTEGIX will help schools operationalize emergency planning with tools that enable immediate, campus-wide response.
CENTEGIX CrisisAlert™ allows any staff member to get help in an emergency with a single button on a wearable badge. The alert is immediately delivered to responders, showing them who needs help and precisely where help is needed. For campus-wide threats, multi-sensory notifications—including strobes throughout campus —alert everyone to follow emergency protocols. This approach aligns directly with the “I Love U Guys” Foundation’s focus on clarity and speed during emergencies.
“Our goal has always been to make safety protocols accessible, actionable, and human-centered,” said Taran Robinson, Development Coordinator, The “I Love U Guys” Foundation. “CENTEGIX stands out as a provider that shares this vision—backed by a proven track record of real-world impact.”
The Foundation chose to partner with CENTEGIX because of its industry-leading, innovative approach to simplifying safety:
-
- Established scale and trust: CENTEGIX created the market for wearable panic buttons for K-12 and is the only safety technology provider with a national footprint of nearly 700,000 wearable panic buttons in use. This level of adoption reflects broad trust in the platform’s reliability, simplicity, and effectiveness. CENTEGIX solutions are utilized by 800+ school districts nationwide, including 71 of the 250 largest U.S. school districts.
- Unmatched insight into real-world usage: CENTEGIX recently released its 2025 School Safety Trends Report, the only comprehensive and data-rich analysis of school safety available in the wearable panic button market. The report identifies and outlines the top tech and legislative movements relevant to school safety in the U.S. and draws on the more than 265,000 incidents of CrisisAlert use in the 2024/2025 school year.
- An innovative approach to school safety: CENTEGIX doesn’t just offer a panic button—it offers a platform. The CENTEGIX Safety Platform includes:
- CrisisAlert™ for wearable emergency response.
- Safety Blueprint™ for digital mapping and situational awareness.
- And a new Visitor Management solution to efficiently authenticate, manage, and locate visitors on campus.
“This partnership enables us to bring SRP and SRM to life through real-time technology that’s already in the hands of hundreds of thousands of educators,” said Dr. Roderick Sams, Chief Development Officer for CENTEGIX. “It’s a shared commitment to make schools safer, smarter, and more prepared.”
