NJCU DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY
Download the NJCU Rave Guardian App
NJCU’s Department of Public Safety encourages you to download the Rave Guardian free mobile app that turns your smartphone into a personal safety device.
By downloading the app on your mobile phone, you can invite friends and family to join your network as your “Guardians.” You can then request one or more of your Guardians to virtually walk with you on or off-campus. It’s like having an emergency blue light system and a trusted friend with you at all times.
The app also has a safety feature that directly connects you to campus security and the Jersey City Police Department in an emergency situation, as well as the abilit to submit an anonymous tip to campus security should you see something suspicious.
On behalf of the NJCU Department of Public Safety, I encourage all students, faculty and staff to enhance their personal safety and the safety of their friends by downloadin the free app. Simply search “Rave Guardian” in the app store on your mobile device. Apps are available for iPhone and Android.
Remember the NJCU Department of Public Safety is ALWAYS available should you need assistance.
