LGBTQIA+ Safety Awareness LGBTQIA+ people are nearly four times more likely to experience violent forms of victimization including rape, sexual assault, and aggravated assault compared to non-LGBTQ individuals. It is critical to know how to best protect yourself, your students, and the community; and to know where to report victimization. Did You Know? In 2019, the number of anti-trans violence incidents grew by 18% from 2018 to 2019 (FBI 2019 Hate Crime Stats Report). According to the FBI, a hate crime is defined as: “a criminal offense against a person or property motivated in whole or in part by an offender’s bias against race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, ethnicity, gender, or gender identity”. Though Federal laws do not ban discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, all but 5 states (Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, South Carolina, and Wyoming) have laws addressing hate crimes. In Texas, hate crimes are addressed based on sexual orientation but not gender identity. In 20 States and D.C., hate crimes are addressed based on sexual orientation AND gender identity. Where to Report If you or someone you know is victimized, please report! Crime Stoppers of Michigan’s Tip Line is a truly anonymous reporting system that allows community members to report without any fear of retaliation. We cannot legally ask any identifying information or track your call in any way. If you are in immediate danger, please call 911!

HISTORY OF CRIME STOPPERS OF MICHIGAN The Alliance for a Safer Greater Detroit is the parent organization for Crime Stoppers of Michigan (CSM). The organization was founded in 1993 as an affiliate of the Detroit Regional Chamber with John Broad as the first chairman and John O'Hair, Wayne County Prosecutor and Horace Sheffield, Chairman of the Detroit Association of Black Organizations, as co-chairmen. The Alliance, an independent 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, grew out of the Detroit Strategic Plan which identified a need for the community, business and law enforcement to come together to fight crime in the Detroit region. Early projects included the Freeway Courtesy Patrol, Fugitive Watch, Alliance Fugitive Task Force, and University Camp. In 2003, the Board of Directors decided to exclusively focus their attention on Crime Stoppers of Michigan, making it the only program of the Alliance. Crime Stoppers of Michigan has become the largest Crime Stoppers organization in Michigan and one of the three largest Crime Stoppers organizations in the United States. With corporate headquarters in Southfield, MI., Crime Stoppers of Michigan operates in the seven counties of Southeast Michigan: Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Monroe, Washtenaw, Livingston and St. Clair. According to Crime Stoppers USA, there are seven recognized Crime Stoppers/Silent Observer programs serving our state. Crime Stoppers of Michigan serves a population of 4,820,684, nearly double the 2,438,364 residents serviced by the other Michigan Crime Stoppers/Silent Observer programs. Put another way, Crime Stoppers of Michigan services half of Michigan’s population of 9.974 million people. We cover seven of the most populated counties in the state. Other counties have requested our services, but without additional funding, we are not equipped to spread our limited resources any further.
