What You Can Do

Take responsible preventative measures to ensure your safety:

• Recognize that violence can occur
• Trust your concerns
• Communicate concerning behaviors to the appropriate resources
• Protect yourself in the event violence occurs
• Don’t be passive bystander - Intervene

If unsure about a person or situation of concern, talk to someone about it.
