Making a Safety Plan
A Safety Plan is a guide to help you and your children stay safe from violence. A safety plan looks at your individual situation and what you need to increase your safety. You should prepare a safety plan in advance so you know what to do in an emergency. As your situation changes, you may need to look at it again and update it. These ideas are only a guide. You need to be the judge of what is safest; what is realistic; and what you can afford to do.
