Abstract
The various implementations of the present invention are provided as a computer system configured to allow for sending requests for aid, responding to requests for aid, and receiving requests to aid in a multi-user environment. Various levels of requests may be requested. In one preferred embodiment of the present invention, a mobile application for integrating the options for requesting aid from a first device to a second is provided, as well as configuration of automated responses. The system allows certain users to post status updates to a website. While useful for many environments, the most preferred embodiments of the present invention are adapted for use in an educational environment to provide school administrators, teachers, parents, and students with enhanced communication capabilities.
