    Can Our Community Effectively Respond to an Active Shooter?

    Active shooter incidents can occur anywhere, but communities across the United States are especially vulnerable to these violent attacks. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, active shootings are increasing in frequency, with hundreds of casualties each year in the US. Major events like the 2022 school shooting in Uvalde, Texas highlight the existential threats facing public spaces during these emergencies. As our nation grapples with rising gun violence, communities must prioritize active shooter preparation and response capacity.

    When active shootings trigger widespread injuries and death, overwhelm first responders, or endanger lives, impacted communities rely on specialized partners to augment emergency services and healing. Assistance may include establishing survivor counseling, providing trauma training for teachers, conducting threat assessments on concerning individuals, coordinating with law enforcement to enhance shooting response tactics, supporting victim compensation funds and hospital bills, identifying security gaps in schools and workplaces, and more.

    With active shooter events worsening across America, establishing robust contingency partners allows efficient mobilization as these security emergencies unfold. For communities prone to gun violence, having experts ready to assist can make the difference between barely coping and saving lives.
