Awareness and education are the most effective and meaningful ways to prevent
rape. The number of forcible rapes will decrease only when women realize that
rape can happen to them and when men understand what constitutes rape. The
assailant may view the lack of awareness on the part of the victim as inviting,
coercive behavior. (Only two out of ten rapes are reported).
We want to establish a complete and meaningful rape awareness program by
utilizing female officers; caring for rape victims; providing counseling services for
victims; providing additional training for investigators; emphasizing community
involvement through the Campus Watch, providing escorts; and offering
guidelines for self-protection.
Remember - in the following safety guidelines, the main emphasis is focused on
the concept of "divert and flee," and stressing the importance of common sense.
