The Personal Safety Class is a program designed to help arm citizens with information, tips,
and tricks to help gain awareness of their surroundings, strategies to
help plan for the “unexpected”, and the confidence to deal with
encounters that may arise in order to enhance personal safety. This
class involves some physical activity, but it is based solely on the
individual participant’s comfort level. This program is ideal for teaching to large groups, and has been taught at local schools, churches, and community groups. The cost of this course is 10 canned goods or
non-perishable items, per person, which will be collected at the beginning of class. For more information on organizing and scheduling a class, you can contact
Lt. Kermit Moore,
Deputy Young,
Deputy Beheler, or
Deputy Warren.
