For students, staff, faculty, and visitors.

Additional app features
- If you have your location enabled in the app, and if you are on campus, your location will be provided to Campus Safety if you select “Send Help.” If possible, also call Campus Safety at 585-389-2850 to provide details regarding the situation, injury, or condition of concern.
- Noticed something that needs attention? You can submit a report form (not anonymous), call Campus Safety, or chat with Campus Safety (from inside the app).
- Social Escape helps you get out of a tough social situation by having the app call you at a designated time. This may provide an excuse for you to leave the uncomfortable situation. Follow the prompts in the app. (This feature is provided by our outside partner and does not involve Campus Safety nor Nazareth University.)
- Friend Walk: Although Nazareth is a very safe environment, you might want to have a friend keep an eye on you as you walk home late at night. In the Friend Walk section of the app, share your location with a friend to watch in real time and make sure you reach your destination. This service is available on and off campus. (This feature is provided by our outside partner and does not involve Campus Safety nor Nazareth University.)
