POPPS Fair helps keep MGHers safe

This year's Police and Security, Outside Services, Photography and Parking Services (POPPS) Fair was held May 25 at CNY with the theme "Protecting You in This Changing World." The event featured demonstrations and educational displays on a number of topics — including management of aggressive behavior, identity theft, crime prevention and general safety for people of all ages. Staff members from several MGH departments and programs — such as Police and Security, Photography, Environmental Health and Safety, Radiation Safety, the Employee Assistance Program (EAP), Hospitals Helping Abuse and Violence End Now (HAVEN) and Men Against Abuse — were on hand to showcase their services and answer questions. Another POPPS Fair will be held at the MGH main campus this fall.
