To bolster community safety, the Plano Police Department is offering a free seminar to help locals learn the ins and outs of personal safety. Set for February 6, 2024, at Davis Library, the two-hour session, beginning at 6:30 p.m., is not one to miss for residents looking to enhance their self-defense smarts. The address is 7501-B Independence Parkway, Plano, TX 75025—a spot ready to serve as a haven for those eager to gain critical knowledge on staying safe in the urban wilds, according to the Plano Texas Police Department.
Under the guidance of Officer Chris Bianez, participants will dive deep into strategies for sidestepping dicey situations and spotting the difference between safe and potentially dangerous individuals, the department has built a curriculum that tackles how predators choose their prey and methods to avoid fitting the victim profile—a revelation that may shift paradigms and avert tragedy, community members are encouraged to attend, but are reminded that the content discussed will be very mature and, hence, deemed unsuitable for children under the age of 11.
No registrations are required for interested attendees, still, the department is advising early arrival for those gunning for prime seating in the Davis Library's Program Room. As with any educational gathering, space can be at a premium and the early bird catches the best spot for knowledge absorption.
Questions are bound to bubble up, and the Plano Police Department's Crime Prevention Unit is on standby to tackle any curiosities or concerns regarding the seminar—just dial 972-941-2431 or shoot an email over to [email protected].
