Safety Ambassadors are often like the local guardians for good in the places we serve because they:

• Maximize visibility in the public right of way to continually greet and find ways to interact with nearly everyone they come into contact with to offer a greeting and friendly conversation. These interactions create awareness of our program and your role, which makes people feel more confident in their safety.
• Conduct merchant visits to share event or security-related information.
• Proactively and compassionately engage in socially unacceptable behaviors, such as panhandling, sleeping in a doorway, or someone acting erratically, to discourage and redirect those behaviors.
• Help the public see that the space we serve is safe, leading to more return visits and sharing positive experiences.
• Professionally represent not only us, but our customers, and they realize we’re highly visible and operate in one of our cities’ most important public spaces.
• Take ownership of every person’s experience in the public space, whether it’s a visitor, resident, worker, or member of the street population.
• Take action when something out of the ordinary happens, which may require escalation to police, fire, EMS, or social service outreach…
