“Refuse to Be a Victim,” a nationally recognized crime prevention seminar, will be presented by the Bristol Tennessee Police Department on Wednesday, Dec. 11, from 6-9 p.m. in the Police Training Room of the Slater Community Center.
This
award-winning program focuses on personal safety and practical crime prevention
methods that help community members minimize their chances of being a victim. It
is not a firearms instruction course and no instruction in physical combat
self-defense is included. Rather, the seminar offers tips
designed to make participants safer at home, in their vehicle, at work, and on
the internet.
“The
class is designed to provide the basic
knowledge, skills, and attitude to enhance personal safety,” said Lt. Brian
Hess of the Bristol Tennessee Police Department. “Through this seminar, we hope
to open the eyes of the public and help them develop practices that can
potentially keep them safe.”
Those interested in attending this
three-hour seminar should register at bristoltn.org/refuse by
Monday, Nov. 25. For additional information, please contact Lt. Hess at (423)
