Do I need an account to contribute?

Yes. A free account is required so we can track contributions and prevent abuse. You can sign up with email or use a magic link.

What happens after I submit?

If a local organization manages the area, your submission goes to their review queue. If no one manages the area yet, your hotline is published immediately with a 'Community (Unreviewed)' badge.

Can I edit my submission after submitting?

Not directly. If you made a mistake, you can report the entry you created and submit a corrected version.

Is there a limit to how many hotlines I can submit?

You can submit up to 10 hotlines per day. This limit helps maintain data quality.
