Crime Awareness and Public Safety:
The occurrence of crime considered to present a threat to members of the campus community, is reported on a timely basis through "Electronic Communication" to the Campus Community.

Incident/Offense report information:
The CSD publishes weekly information on all incidents, administrative and criminal, occurring on campus. The information is updated weekly on the following page http://www.emc.maricopa.edu/security/weekly.asp. In addition, the CSD maintains a Daily Crime Log that contains the date, time, location, nature and disposition of all crimes occurring at the college and on adjacent public property. Entries in the log are made within two business days of the incident report.

Crime statistics:
Statistics and security policies, collated in accordance to the guidelines established in the Clery Act (20 USC § 1092(f)), are published and distributed annually to all current students and employees, and when requested, to any applicant for enrollment employment at the college. A copy will also be provided to anyone, upon request to the Director of Public Safety at 623.935.8915.

Escort service:
An escort service is available to the students, faculty and staff of Estrella Mountain Community College. A request may be made to the CSD at extension 58915. An officer will respond and accompany you to a vehicle or the bus stop closest to the campus.

Assistance for disabled motor vehicles:
Reasonable assistance will be provided to drivers who lock their keys inside of their vehicles and/or whose motor vehicle is disabled on campus. After the driver of the vehicle prepares and signs the appropriate vehicle assistance form, an officer will provide a battery boost or assist with opening the vehicle.

Safety presentations:
Members of the CSD provide safety presentations during class orientations. They are also available to talk to any department or groups of students. The orientations and talks are designed to educate members of the college community about the services provided by the CSD and how to avoid becoming the victim of a crime at the college.
