SHA is the only nationwide Emergency Contact Service with student members from 87+ countries and trusted by more than 150 boarding schools. Similar to an insurance policy, membership provides access to our exclusive network of services, including same-day pickup, overnight accommodations and 24hr supervision from a certified SHA host. Plus, coverage for the first 24hrs of services FREE*!
Guardians ("Chaperones") are assigned at the time of an emergency, and matched with students based on their individual needs to ensure the highest level of care. Daily reports with vital health information are sent directly to parents, providing peace of mind knowing their student is safe and healthy during their stay.

More About SHA...
Our company was founded with the mission to be a "family away from home" for students, and provide a safe, supportive network of services delivered by people who genuinely care about their health and overall wellbeing.
Conceived by faculty and health professionals who live and work at boarding schools; they experienced (first-hand) when students have been left stranded without support during times when the school can no longer provide care. They recognized the need for a better solution. So, we developed a proprietary network of services that could be available 24/7 and provide the highest level of care for students based on their individual needs.
Sometimes the balance between academics, sports and social development can become difficult for students to manage. So, when they get sick, injured, or suffer a mental health crisis during the year, we provide a comfortable, safe environment for them to rest or recover. Our team of Chaperones will tend to their every need, and provide 24hr supervision until they can return to campus, or finally travel home.
*Emergency services provided at no additional cost for the first 24hrs only - 1x per year ($1500 max value)
