Safe Place sign


Beginning April 24, a young person in Duluth who has run away or is in a threatening situation will be able to take refuge at any place identified by the yellow-and-black, diamond-shaped “Safe Place” sign that denotes a place where staff have been trained to provide assistance. To learn more about Safe Place, or to inquire about volunteering or offering your facility as a Safe Place, contact Dawn Shykes, program manager for Lutheran Social Service, at (218) 626-1901, Ext. 14.
