Building Confidence: 

De-Escalation, Violence Prevention and Response

As we bring more of our community members back to campuses, we need to be aware of the separation that has occurred this past year and its implications on mental health and community safety.

This month's session will be  focused on: Prevention, Mitigation, and Response. What are the key warning signs? How to de-escalate if faced with a potentially violent individual? What are best practices for activating and releasing a lockdown or secure campus?
