Official website of the Department of Homeland Security
DHS and its partners raise public awareness of the indicators of terrorism and terrorism-related crime through the "If You See Something, Say Something®" campaign. We engage and inform the public through television and radio Public Service Announcements (PSAs), partner print materials, transit opportunities, billboards, and other media.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has designated September 25 as national “If You See Something, Say Something®” Awareness Day to further increase campaign awareness. Learn more about Awareness Day.
Print Materials
DHS supports campaign partners by designing outreach materials such as posters, brochures, web graphics, digital signage, and more at no cost. Partners are responsible for printing and distributing based on their unique needs.
Infographic
With the help of the Nationwide Suspicious Activity Reporting (SAR) Initiative (NSI), the campaign has identified indicators of terrorism-related suspicious activity. Download the infographic, learn the signs, and share with your community.
Take the Challenge PSA
DHS partners with colleges and universities to engage students and disseminate the "If You See Something, Say Something®" message. This student-focused video PSA aims to keep our schools and communities safer and raise awareness of the signs of suspicious activity and the steps to report it. Together, we can help keep our communities safe. Take the Challenge Now!
Video & Radio PSAs
DHS also produces and distributes video/television and radio PSAs to expand the campaign’s reach. Video and audio files are available in English and Spanish, and the campaign works with partners to address specific language needs.
Why I SeeSay PSA
The “If You See Something, Say Something®” campaign encourages the general public to report suspicious activity to local authorities. We all have something worth protecting—our family, our friends, our community. This PSA series helps viewers and listeners identify the many reasons why they should “See Say” by showcasing a variety of locations—sporting events, school, concerts—where staying vigilant is vital.
Protect Your Every Day PSA
Homeland security begins with hometown security. This PSA seeks to empower everyday citizens to protect their neighbors and the communities they call home by recognizing and reporting suspicious activity. Across the country, we all play a role in keeping each other safe.
