Vision Statement

Victims' Advocacy: PursuitSAFETY® provides a safe place for bereaved families and injured innocent victims to turn to for the support they need.

Police Pursuits: PursuitSAFETY® advocates that chases only need to be conducted when there is no other way to apprehend a driver who poses an imminent threat to public safety, i.e., to prevent future injuries and deaths. PursuitSAFETY advocates that pursuits for misdemeanor violations, non-felony actions or property-only felonies should be avoided. Read about PursuitSAFETY’s Safer Way Award.

Police Response Calls: PursuitSAFETY® advocates police response calls need to be conducted with extreme caution to prevent deaths of and injures to innocent bystanders and officers.
