WHAT SHOULD YOU DO IN AN EMERGENCY?
Be aware of your surroundings.

Being aware of where you are and what is happening around you can help you to understand how information, events, and your own actions will impact your safety and your ability to protect yourself, both now and in the near future.

Protect yourself.

Based upon your assessment of the situation, use your best judgment to protect yourself and, if possible, others.

Call for help.

Any emergency service can be summoned by calling 911.

Help others.

Once you are safely away from the danger, warn others of the hazard and help if you can without putting yourself in danger.

Questions regarding these programs can be directed to Maeci Hoffman, Director.

Active Shooter Safety Videos

In the past two decades, horrific mass shootings have been thrust into the public consciousness. The average time for police response to an active attack event is three (3) minutes and research has shown that many of these events are over before law enforcement responders arrive on the scene. Civilians who find themselves in such an event should be prepared to take immediate action to save their own lives before law enforcement arrives. Without preplanned response options for civilians at the scene of an attack, many victims can be seriously injured or killed during the three minutes it can take for help to arrive.
