Health Indicators

Primarily to promote awareness of the urgent mission to make homes a safer place, me and my school-based organization (I am a teacher of community development in a university) solicit the help of print media, radio and television network for publicity of its services by featuring preventive security measures or personal interviews of those who have experienced a security threat in their homes. The security in homes movement has gained the support of various individuals and organizations who believe in the core thrust of the organization on security measures at home. One such measure is definitely having whatever form of Home Security Systems. Many homes lack the security because the basic things like alarms and necessary sensors are absent. My organization has been a determined advocate of homes at least having DIY Security Systems. We do not get anything from companies who sell security sytems. What we get is the fulfillment that we are contributing in a small way into making homes a safer place. During the our school’s security and safety week, members of my organization conduct various activities in their respective areas we have coordinated with. In one area, a symbolic “burglary drill” is held on the last day of the week to demonstrate what should be done in case a door alarm goes off due to possible burglary. Through this drills, my organization was able to connect with other security and home-safety organizations and service providers. Next year, we are planning to have a tri media campaign to increase public awareness about home security.
