Tampa Education Center hosts alumna, TPD Chief O’Conner for presentation on SAFE program

The Tampa Education Center hosted the Tampa Police Department on Thursday, March 24, for its presentation on the Safety Awareness for Everyone (SAFE) program, which was started in December 2021.

Tampa Police Chief Mary O’Connor, a Saint Leo University alumna who earned her associate degree in 1990 and her Master of Business Administration degree in 2001, discussed the program. SAFE is a crime prevention program that the agency implemented to replace its controversial Crime-Free Multi-Housing program.

The SAFE program utilizes neighborhood watches, a crime-free program, and Business Watch Tampa. It will include an online dashboard where residents, landlords, and business owners can track police activity close to their properties and make anonymous tips about crime.
