Description: Welcome to SafeEncounter, a community safety database to compile profiles for at-risk community members with communication challenges.
Welcome to SafeEncounter , the revolutionary community safety tool designed to help law enforcement get at-risk individuals home safely. Family, friends, and loved ones can create a profile for any dependents with intellectual disabilities, severe mental health issues, or non-verbal communication styles. Using secure and innovative technology, SafeEncounter can communicate specific needs, even when your loved one cannot.
SafeEncounter’s mission is to return vulnerable individuals home safely in times of emergency. Wandering is an extremely common symptom of cognitive disorders, intellectual disabilities, and severe mental health issues . From children to senior citizens, loved ones with these medic al conditions are at risk of getting lost. SafeEncounter allows f amily members to create a profile for free on the database that is then accessible to the district’s police department.
If an individual wanders away from home, law enforcement can refer to the database to identify the individual, learn more about any health conditions, prepare for how they react to various triggers, and pinpoint popular locations they frequent.
