Through its school safety assessments, crisis response planning, and provision of critical incident planning resources, the center is committed to intervening in the progression of violence before it escalates into a tragic event affecting students, teachers, and staff.
With a focus on all potential sources of violence within school premises, the School Safety Center conducts on-site premise and policy reviews, delivers best-practice training, and provides technical assistance to address these concerns effectively.
Team members of the School Safety Center collaborate with school officials and key community stakeholders to establish a violence-free environment and equip all involved parties with the necessary preparedness to respond effectively in crises or critical incidents.
