Safety Tips Avoid walking alone as much as possible. There is safety in numbers. Be alert when you are alone. Be aware of your surroundings and who is around you. Walk confidently, directly and at a steady pace.
Attackers look for someone who appears vulnerable.
Avoid isolated and poorly lit places and unpopulated areas, alleys, vacant lots or buildings. Be careful when people in a car ask you for directions. Reply from a distance. Never get close to the car. When walking to your car or building, always have your keys ready.
