Welcome to Safer Communities
Everyone has the right to feel safe and respected at Chisholm. Whether you're a student, an employee, or a visitor, your wellbeing matters – and we're committed to supporting it.
We take our responsibility seriously by prioritising safety, responding to concerns and risks, and doing what we can to create a secure and supportive environment for everyone on campus.
What is Safer Communities?
Safer Communities is the team at Chisholm that works to prevent and manage high-risk behaviours that can threaten the safety of our community.
We're here to promote a culture where people feel comfortable speaking up and know they'll be supported. Our goal is to ensure everyone can pursue their educational and professional goals in a safe shared space.
