Is this sentence correct?

Simply put, the safety of my mom, my brother and me can hardly be guaranteed in this place.

Hi,

I don't think the underline phrase sounds grammatical.

Could anyone help me rephrase it ?

Thanks

It may sound a bit awkward, but it's fine grammatically. Simply put, no one can guarantee safety for my mom, my brother, and me [in this place / here]. Simply put, there is no guarantee that my mom, my brother, and me will be safe [in this place / here].
