Risk Assessment Executive Summary

Many of our ALICE Trained schools jumped right into training their staff and students the options-based strategies to increase survivability in a violent intruder incident. We are pleased that the ALICE strategies are working to help you empower survival, thank you.

The ALICE Risk Assessment gives you a comprehensive look at every aspect of safety for each of your buildings in your school district. The recommendation is to have a professional assess and complete a risk assessment every three years. This grant will ensure you remain compliant to the standards.

Schools work very hard to ensure school safety. It is one of their top priorities.  These resources can help school administrators understand the move to proactive response options as part of the school’s safety strategy pertaining to violent attacks.
