MEET OUR SAFE PERSONS: THEIR STORIES, THEIR WORDS

Being a Safe Person is more than simply being someone students can approach. It is about listening without judgment, understanding, and creating a space where students feel comfortable being themselves.

As part of our Su***de Prevention Month 2026 activities, we sat down with our chosen Safe Persons and asked them about their experiences, perspectives, and what being a Safe Person means to them.

Get to know the people behind the title and the words they want every DCCPian to hear.

Sometimes, having someone who listens without judgment can make a world of difference.

As part of our Su***de Prevention Month celebration, we proudly recognize the faculty members who were chosen by students as their Safe Person in their respective departments.

These individuals have earned the trust of their students through their kindness, understanding, and willingness to listen. More than an award, being chosen as a Safe Person is a reminder of the impact a caring presence can have on someone who simply needs to be heard.

To our Safe Persons, thank you for being someone our students can turn to. Your presence helps remind them that they are heard, valued, and never alone. 🫂
