Protect Yourself:


Make sure someone knows of your location whenever you're alone

Stay aware of your surroundings

When listening to music make sure it's quiet enough that you are still able to hear everything that is happening around you

No matter where you are make sure that your location is on

Protect Others:


If you know something, SAY SOMETHING. If you have any reason to believe that someone you know might be in danger, don't hesitate to call 911 or the human trafficking hotline.

If someone you know is tay on th phone with them if they are walking alone at night and even in the day time
