Safe Homes

Safe Homes is concerned with underage substance use and abuse, not a program designed to address adult alcohol consumption.

The Safe Homes pledge is not a legally binding contract. It is an "Agreement" among a community network of parents.

The Safe Homes Program is a support network for Bedford parents who are concerned about alcohol and drug use at pre-teen and teen parties and gatherings. Families who join Safe Homes promise to provide a safe and supervised home for teen parties.

To learn more, read the Safe Homes Program Flyer (PDF). To sign up, fill out the pledge form (PDF) and mail it in, or sign up online.

We encourage you to sign up for the Safe Homes Program in support of the youth in our communities. If you made the pledge last year, your name will remain in the directory, with an update to your children's grade levels, unless you request that it be removed.

Every fall, we will update the latest Safe Homes Directory which lists the Safe Homes in our communities. For more information about Safe Homes, please read the Bedford Safe Homes FAQs (PDF).

If you have questions or thoughts about the Safe Homes program and how it can be improved or more successful, please consider filling out our Safe Homes feedback form.
