Civilian Response to Active Shooter Events

August 29, 2019, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM @ Athens Church

Be A Leader For Your Community Most of us strive to let others take charge during an emergency. However, we encourage you to be a leader when it comes to understanding the civilian response to active shooter events - what to do until - and when law enforcement arrives. We encourage you to attend this Civilian Response to Active Shooter Events course and share it with your friends, family, neighbors, and community. When people need someone to turn to for information about how to respond to active threats - We want you to be a leader. We want you to be the leader who shares this lifesaving, rational plan for Avoiding, Denying and Defending themselves when faced with an active threat. Remember that "hiding and wishing for it to be over" are never the most effective responses for survival. What you do matters. Spread the word.
