The Santa Clarita Sheriff Station recently publicized their participation in a nation-wide effort to keep their valuables safe known as the 9 p.m. Routine. The post from the SCV Sheriff Station Facebook page reads:

“SCV Sheriff’s and the City of Santa Clarita Urge Community to Keep Valuables Safe with the #9PMRoutine

In partnership with the City of Santa Clarita, the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station is joining other public safety agencies across the country to promote the “#9PMRoutine,” a social media campaign to raise awareness and promote safer habits among residents to prevent unnecessary thefts from vehicles, as well as home and car burglaries.

Since incorporation, one of the City’s top priorities has been the safety of residents. In fact Santa Clarita has been placed in the top 10 safest cities in California according to FBI data analyzed by safehome.org.

However, with a recent rise in theft-related crimes, both the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station and City of Santa Clarita will use their social media accounts to spread messages with the hashtag #9PMRoutine to remind residents to take crime preventative measures every night before they go to bed at 9:00 p.m. Residents are encouraged to set a nightly alarm on their smartphone, watch, or other device to remind them to do the following:

1. Remove valuables (electronic devices, wallets, etc.) from your vehicle.
2. Ensure that vehicle doors and trunks are locked.
3. Check that all house and property exterior doors and garage are locked.
4. Turn on exterior lights.

“These are simple things the community can do, before they go to bed, to partner with us to prevent themselves from becoming a victim of crime,” says Captain Robert Lewis.

To join the 9 p.m. Routine and help spread the word to your community, show your 9 p.m. Routine with the hashtag #9PMRoutine and follow the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station and the City of Santa Clarita social media accounts on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.”
