Teen Programs: Safety & Personal Protection
There are safety courses designed and directed toward men, women, and children found all around the country. However, there seems to be a lack of courses directed specifically at the teenage population. Teens face similar threats to what adults and children might face, but they also face threats unique to their age group.
To combat this issue EDT has developed programs designed to fit the specific needs of teens. This includes things such as- decreased awareness which can be induced by drugs and alcohol and issues of date rape and date rape drugs.
Personal Safety Tips For Teens:
· If you carry a purse, keep it close to your body and tightly closed.
· If you carry a wallet, keep it in the front pants pocket if possible.
· Avoid secluded or dark routes and shortcuts.
· Whenever going out, go with friends. There’s safety in numbers!
· Avoid parties which include alcohol, or avoid drinking alcohol which can impair awareness and physical self-defense skills.
· Have your car key in hand as you approach your vehicle.
· Don't give strangers personal information.
· If going out, always let someone know where your are going and who you are going with. Leave notes if you have to.
