RAVE Guardian App

The RAVE Guardian App can be downloaded through the Apple AppStore – IOS or Google PlayStore – Android.  Everyone is encouraged to download the Rave Guardian App and enter their information (photo, emergency contacts, vehicle, and medical conditions) The Rave Guardian App allows students, faculty and staff to contact security with the touch of a single button.  Through this app users can call security or 911 by pressing a single button.  Users can also contact security by sending a message through the chat button.  This could be used to report suspicious activity, report a disturbance, damage to property, harm to a person, or just to connect with security about any safety incident on campus.  Security is then able to communicate back in this chat.  Users can also enable location while using this chat so in an emergency, security would be able to find your location on campus.  Another safety feature of Rave Guardian is “Safety Timers”.  These can be set up for “Official Guardian” and/or “Friends and Family”.  When this is activated by users and the timer is set, someone from Official Guardian and/or the users Friends and Family contacts are able to make sure you reach your destination.  Once the user reaches their destination they deactivate the timer.  If the timer runs out then Official Guardian and/or Friends and Family is notified and are able to then track your path and your last location.
