Proper notification can prevent dangers and threats. • Do not provide personal information, i.e. social security numbers, to person(s) on the phone that you are not familiar with. Legitimate organizations will not request certain information over the phone. • Control your social media messaging. Giving too much information particularly about your movements can provide a road map for individuals intending on harming you or stealing from you. • Trust but verify when dealing with people you don't know well. OF SPECIAL NOTE BE SEEN ALL PEDESTRIANS are encouraged to wear reflective gear when walking or running before dawn and after dusk. Safety is our number one concern.
