**WARNING FOR ALL COLLEGE BOUND STUDENTS**

 


As the Del Aire Neighborhood Watch coordinator, I attempt to post information about The Red Zone each year around this time just as our college bound coeds are heading off to school. Please take the time to read these articles, and more importantly, pass them on to anyone you know that is leaving for college. A little information can be the key to their safety and a successful college experience. The articles reference a phenomenon that occurs around this time EVERY YEAR when young adults leave home for the first time to attend school and find themselves vulnerable to sexual assault. This could easily be a topic of an endless discussion. But we are not interested a social debate here. Let us just help our young adults be safe. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/loving-bravely/201808/talking-college-students-about-the-red-zone https://www.nbcnews.com/feature/college-game-plan/what-you-need-know-about-red-zone-when-campus-sexual-n649686 https://www.offgridweb.com/survival/overcoming-sexual-assault/amp/ I will post more relevant information if anyone has any questions. BE SAFE NEIGHBORS!!!
