Tips for Staying Safe: Everywhere, Everyday

- Scan and stay aware of your surroundings by keeping your head on a swivel.
- Take note of who and what you see around you.
- Know your exits and plan how you can safely leave should you need to.
- Remind yourself that being prepared is not being paranoid!

- Stand tall, confidently & alert to show you are NOT an easy target.
