Safety Through Connection
Building Bridges, Not Barriers
Community engagement is more than just an activity; it's the foundation of effective policing. We commit to transparency, mutual respect, and proactive communication to solve problems together.
Transparency
We operate openly and encourage feedback. Understanding your concerns helps us serve the campus better.
Collaboration
Safety is a shared responsibility. We partner with campus departments and student groups to tackle community issues.
Empowerment
We provide training and resources that empower every community member to take an active role in their own safety.
Safety Training & Classes
Empower yourself with knowledge. We offer specialized courses including CRASE (Civilian Response to Active Shooter Events), R.A.D. Self-Defense, and campus safety workshops.

CRASE is a training program designed to provide citizens with the knowledge and strategies to survive an active shooter event. Developed by the Advanced Law Enforcement Rapid Response Training (ALERRT) Center at Texas State University, this course bridges the gap between the moment a 911 call is made and the moment law enforcement arrives on the scene.
