Stranger Danger
Children in Leon Valley are taught what to do when approached by strangers. Rules on what to do are discussed and "what if” situations are presented to ensure the children understand how they can be tricked by strangers.
Elderly Safety
Programs in Home Security, Personal Safety, Theft, and Fraud Prevention have been developed to address the unique needs of the elder citizens in the Leon Valley community. Officers work closely with the assisted living facilities, senior living apartments and families of seniors to ensure they are not victims of crime. The Leon Valley Police Department attends events involving seniors to stress safety and security in their community.

Presentations are available to teenage and adult groups on local and statewide statistics. In the presentations, our officers cover the present laws concerning Driving While Intoxicated (DWI), Involuntary Manslaughter, and other traffic related crimes that can occur.

Our presentations are specifically designed to increase citizen-awareness of the possibility of crimes against persons. This class includes lectures, related films, and a group discussion. Circumstances that increase the possibility of being attacked are outlined and the proper preventative measures to be taken while at home or away are presented.
