Safety planning is for everyone who has experienced violence or is at risk of violence. Even if you have sought protection from the justice system, it is still helpful to have a Safety Plan.
A Safety Plan increases your ability to stay safe and prepare ahead for the possibility of future violence. While you do not have control over another person's actions, you have a choice as to how you respond to him/her. You want to focus on the best way to enhance your safety. We know that Safety Planning is emotionally draining, can be complicated and unique to your specific situation so Regina’s Safe Alliance is here to support you.
