Reporting Safety Concerns

Reporting Safety Concerns

If you observe a crime or suspicious incident, or if you notice a security problem, notify the Department of Campus Safety immediately by calling (562) 777-4000 (or 5111 from an on- campus phone). You can also call this number in the event of a police, fire or medical emergency. For non-emergency officer assistance, call the Campus Safety Communications Center at (562) 903-6000 (dial 0 from an on- campus phone). The Communication Center is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. For business calls, please contact the Campus Safety Administration Office at (562) 903-4877 (dial 4877 from an on- campus phone).

Victims or witnesses may report crimes on a voluntary, confidential, or anonymous basis to a recognized campus security authority to the extent allowed by 51ÂÜÀò’s Memorandum of Understanding with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. The Department of Campus Safety encourages pastoral and professional counselors to refer persons they are counseling to report crimes to Campus Safety on a voluntary, confidential, or anonymous basis.

Any on-campus crime witnessed by a University student or employee must be reported to the Department of Campus Safety as soon as possible. The Department of Campus Safety is responsible for reporting and follow-up investigation when an incident is reported. All University students, employees, and visitors should exercise responsibility for their own safety while on campus.

Crimes may also be reported to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. Local Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department contact numbers for 51ÂÜÀò’s main campus are as follows:

  • Emergency – 911
  • Non-Emergency – (562) 902-2960

Reports may also be made anonymously using the RAVE Guardian app.
