    Safety and Security
    Updated Jun 11

      Safety and Security

      SAFETY AND SECURITY INFORMATION

      Please remember DC is a city, not a school campus

      In the event of an emergency – call 911
      For all police non-emergency’s – call 311
      Please contact DC Program staff if you have any questions or concerns

      SAFETY & CRIME STATISTICS

      Safety is our number one concern for you, and it should be high on your priority list too. DC is a large, international city, and, like any large city, has some unsavory to downright dangerous neighborhoods. While crime rates are steadily decreasing, Washington, DC still has one of the highest crime rates in the nation.

      Websites for an overview of safety:

      • Crime rates by neighborhood: http://www.spotcrime.com/

      • DC police crime statistics: District Crime Data at a Glance | mpdc

      • Receive emergency alerts, notifications, and updates directly from the District of Columbia's public safety officials: AlertDC - AlertDC - Alerts Straight To Your Devices | hsema

      SAFETY TIPS

      • Walk purposefully and confidently—and keep moving. Be aware of your surroundings.

      • Always let someone know where you are going and when you will return.

      • Always know where you are and where you can find help if needed. Even if you are lost, act as if you know where you are going.

      • Stay sober and coherent. Persons under the influence are more likely to be victims of serious crimes or accidents.

      • Don’t let people follow you into buildings (apartments, CSIS, SU in DC Program Center).

      • Trust your instincts. If something or someone makes you uneasy, avoid the person or situation and leave as soon as possible.
