- Safe Communities
-
A Safe Community is one which reflects the passion and commitment of people who DREAM of a community that is free of injury and pain, and who DARE to commit to DO something tangible to realize that dream.
A designated Safe Community is one which believes that a safe life is a basic right, and views its designation as a public affirmation of, and testament to, its aspiration to create a safer life for all its citizens.
