Stay Alert
In an emergency, communication is critical. Our free smartphone app, Spartan Safe, helps you report any serious situation quickly, and lets first responders locate you with more accuracy. Plus, the app allows you to set a "safety check" so you can let friends and family know where you're headed and when—giving them peace of mind when you make it there safely.
