In our commitment to campus safety, the University of Lynchburg launched a new safety tool called LiveSafe. The LiveSafe app has already improved communication between students, employees, and campus security, and allows for faster emergency response in distress situations. By having access to the latest safety information, our goal is to help build a safe campus, together.
The app allows you to:
- Send your location to campus security in an emergency.
- Report tips anonymously to campus security.
- Have family, friends or security virtually monitor your walk on campus.
- Let friends or family monitor you as you walk home, so you never have to walk alone.
- Receive broadcast messages and review emergency information and procedures.
- Find Campus and Local Resources and Assistance.
- Receive real-time safety alerts from campus security on your phone.
How You Can Help
Once you have downloaded LiveSafe, please help us spread the word to students and employees about the benefits of downloading the LiveSafe app. Take a few moments in class to mention the app and have others download it.
How to Get the App
