System and method for collecting and disseminating information for addressing crisis conditions

A mobile communication system including a mobile communication device configured to carry out through processor executable instructions using computer-implemented functions to improve operation of the computing system to enable a user to quickly and privately access crisis-related resources of interest to the user, the system comprising:

• a computer program configured to operate on the mobile communication device through the processor and configured to access the internet and having stored thereon computer-executable instructions configured to cause the computer device to implement instructions;
• a database of information accessible through the mobile communication device, wherein the information of the database includes crisis resource information for a plurality of crisis resources in the form of direct website links, direct telephone number links or both;
• a graphical user interface icon representing the computer program as a computer application accessible through the mobile communication device;
• and
• a resource access function accessed on the mobile communication device through the graphical user interface icon, wherein the resource access function is configured to enable the user to access the crisis resource information by selecting a crisis resource icon on the mobile communication device from a plurality of crisis resource icons representing a crisis resource of interest, wherein the plurality of crisis resource icons includes a plurality of global radio buttons for a set of accessible crisis resources, and a plurality of cell phone radio buttons for a set of links for crisis resource calling,
• wherein each of the cell phone radio buttons is configured to enable the user to tap one of the cell phone radio buttons to initiate a direct call to a selected crisis resource associated with the tapped cell phone radio button,
• wherein each of the plurality of global radio buttons is configured to enable the user to tap at least one of the global radio buttons to access a display showing a first set of location links by state for crisis resources associated with the tapped global radio button that are located within one or more states of the first set of location links,
• wherein each of the first set of location links is configured to enable the user to tap at least one of the first set of location links to access a display showing a second set of location links by county for crisis resources associated with the tapped global radio button that are located within one or more counties of the second set of location links, and
• wherein each of the second set of location links is configured to enable the user to tap at least one of the second set of location links to access one or more crisis resources within the one or more counties to observe one or more crisis resource links located within a selected one of the one or more counties, and
• wherein the user can tap any of the one or more crisis resource links to initiate a direct call to a tapped crisis resource link located within the selected county.
