Join your community 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.

The #9PMRoutine is to remind residents to take crime preventative measures every night by 9 p.m. before they go to bed. 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.

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.

Take care, and be safe.
