Boulder Police Department offers free safety class; registration is underway

The Boulder Police Department is offering Safety First for Adults from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on consecutive Thursdays; April 4, 11, 18, 25 and May 2, 2013 at the Public Safety Building, 1805 33rd Street, in Boulder.

Safety First for Adults is, a free five-week program designed to provide safety tips to adults with developmental disabilities who live and work in the community.  The program curriculum covers decision making skills, street smart safety, home security, fire prevention and safety, safety while riding public transportation and calling police including non-emergency and 9-1-1.

Safety First for Adults is taught by Boulder police officers utilizing a combination of lectures, small groups and hands-on activities. Participants are encouraged to attend classes independently as this best reflects their responsibilities while functioning in the community. Students should attend all classes, arriving at 3:55 p.m. and departing at 6:00 p.m.

Students may attend a Safety First class more than once. The decision to register for additional time is made by the class coordinator and is considered on a case-by-case basis.

Please register early. The deadline is March 21, 2013. For more information or to register, please contact Kris Gibson at (303) 441-3332 or by e-mail: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
