Family Safety Tips

Has your child stopped to talk with a predator? Does your child pass by a registered sex offender’s house when walking back from school or while riding her bike? The OffenderWatch app sends you a text message if your child lingers near a known offender’s residence.

Do you know if registered sex offenders live near your child? 80% of homes in the U.S. are within a mile of a registered offender’s residence. Where do offenders live in your neighborhood?   With the OffenderWatch App, parents:

  • Track your child on a map and see if registered offenders live nearby.
  • Get an alert if your child lingers too close to a registered offender’s residence.
  • Get an alert if a registered offender contacts your child by call, text, or email.
  • Click to request a check in from your child.
