Story Intake Safety Guide
A calmer order for using the story-intake page on the JT for ME site.

SAFE ORDER
- 1. Stabilize the immediate problem first.
- 2. Leave out identifying details unless truly necessary.
- 3. Write the shortest useful timeline.
- 4. Say what part of the process made things worse.
- 5. Say what would have helped sooner.

USE FIRST
- Family Hub for safety, housing strain, court-date confusion, legal-help routes, and child-support starting points.

USE AFTER THAT
- Story Intake template for a structured civic note.
- Dashboard, Sources + Proof, and Reform Tracker after the facts are calmer and the practical doorway is already clear.

REMINDER
- This page is for pattern-finding and reform insight. It is not legal advice, not case management, and not a guaranteed response queue.
