Before you meet a stranger, choose safety first. The Paradise Valley Police Department's (6433 E Lincon Dr) Safe Exchange Zone provides a designated, well-lit location outside the police department where community members can meet to complete transactions with greater confidence.

❗The Safe Exchange Zone is also available for child custody exchanges, offering a neutral, public location for parents and guardians to safely exchange children in accordance with custody or parenting agreements.

❗Available 24/7, the Safe Exchange Zone is located in a well-lit area equipped with security cameras to help provide a convenient meeting place that promotes safety and peace of mind. While officers do not participate in or supervise transactions or custody exchanges, the location is intended to offer a safer alternative to meeting in unfamiliar places.

❗Whether you're completing a sale or coordinating a custody exchange, planning ahead can make all the difference. Let someone know where you're going, arrive at your scheduled time, and if something doesn't feel right, trust your instincts and leave.

Make your next exchange a safe one by choosing the Paradise Valley Police Department's Safe Exchange Zone. 🚔
