Across the country, in our communities, we share everyday moments with our neighbors, family, coworkers, and friends. We go to work or school, the grocery store, or the gas station. It's easy to overlook these routine moments, but as you’re going about your day, if you see something that doesn't seem quite right, say something. By being alert and reporting suspicious activity to your local law enforcement, you can protect your family, neighbors, and community.
September 25 has been designated as national “If You See Something, Say Something®” Awareness Day. The campaign works with partners year-round to inspire, empower and educate the public on suspicious activity reporting.
Do you pay attention to your surroundings? The Department of Homeland Security created a set of videos to raise awareness of the importance of paying attention to your surroundings. Together, we can help keep our communities safe.
We all play a role in keeping our communities safe. Remember to stay vigilant and say something when you see signs of suspicious activity.
Public safety and security is everyone's responsibility. If you see suspicious activity, report it to local law enforcement or a person of authority using the "5W's".
