One of the easiest ways to connect with Campus Safety Services (CSS), 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, is via the Brock Safety app. This user-friendly app provides access to 9-1-1 and a means to connect directly to a CSS dispatcher. In addition, the app provides quick links to resources including Student Wellness & Accessibility, Crisis Information & Counseling, Report-a-Crime online, and information on lost and found property.
The Brock Safety app also plays a key role in our mass notification system. In the event an incident or situation may impact the Brock community, staff from our Central Communications and Monitoring Centre are able to alert subscribers through messaging broadcast on the app, this in addition to other communication tools such as email or social media.
CSS has a combined total of over 30,000 Brock Safety app subscribers and social media followers. Throughout the year, CSS will post educational and crime prevention content on social media. The Brock Safety app is available on IOS or Android operating systems and is free to download in your app store.
In addition to downloading the Brock Safety app, members of the Brock community are encouraged to follow CSS on X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook (@BrockUSafety and āBrockSpecialConstableServiceā respectively) to receive timely communication and content that promotes safety on campus.
