The Safe Path program, a collaboration between the Philadelphia School District and the Penn Injury Science Center (PISC), aims to enhance school and community safety during dismissals. Led by Bernadette Hohl from PISC and supported by Anthony Singleton of Educators 4 Education (E4E), the program places trusted adults as Safe Path monitors to promote positive engagement and address conflicts.
Safe Path currently operates at several Philadelphia high schools, providing critical support to students and fostering safer communities. Inspired by Chicago’s Safe Passage initiative, the program has shown promising results and plans to expand further.
