Keeping our Neighborhood Safe

"24/7 security and lighting creates a safe, monitored facility – unlike an abandoned bowling alley."

Expert Confirmation:

The Broward Sheriff's Homeless Outreach Office effectively addressed questions about safety and homelessness at Commissioner Audrey Fesik's 'District 1 Dialogues' meeting.

His thoughtful explanation that the freestanding emergency department (FSED) won't be a destination for Baker Act patients or homeless individuals was very well received and helped reassure the audience about the facility's role in our community.
