tious, be alert, and try to avoid situations that
could tempt those who are without a moral
compass.
If any situation looks or feels like it may
present a threat, call 911 or try to remove
yourself from the area or the immediate
vicinity of a person or persons that make the
situation suspicious or trigger any feelings of
discomfort. If you feel you are being fol-
lowed, don't go home, go to the nearest
police or fire station.
Believe it or not, police dispatchers and
officers would much rather soothe a few
unwarranted fears, than try to find your
attacker.
