Active Shooter Training
Learn the latest nationwide statistics and gain essential guidance on effectively responding to acts of violence. Our Active Shooter Training includes instruction on detecting potential threats and defusing them, empowering your team to handle crises with confidence. This informative presentation typically lasts about an hour and can be conducted in a suitable area within your workplace or place of worship. No pre-visit is required for this option.
Security/Familiarity Walkthrough + Active Shooter Training
In addition to Active Shooter Training, CCNC offers personalized recommendations and advanced firearms training options tailored to your specific business or congregation, aligning with your mission and ministries. Choose this option to schedule a "pre-visit" walkthrough 1 to 2 weeks prior, during which we provide suggestions to enhance the safety experience for employees, customers, or congregants. This presentation is ideal for executive management, church leadership, and responsible parties and can be scheduled either before or after the Active Shooter presentation.
Walkthrough + Active Shooter Training + Safety Ministry Seminar (CHURCHES ONLY)
For Houses of Worship seeking to establish or enhance a "Safety Team Ministry," this option offers comprehensive training to care for congregants and visitors with the utmost dedication. Over approximately 5-6 hours, our sessions cover various critical topics, including medical emergencies, first aid, fire safety, weather-related protocols, recognizing signs of violence, de-escalation techniques, and more. Elevate the quality of your safety ministry through this empowering training day, scheduled preferably on Saturdays.

FAQs
Emergencies occur in congregations every week, whether during worship services, youth activities, or Wednesday night prayer meetings. The church staff and congregants will respond to various types of emergencies, including medical, fires, acts of violence, or weather-related incidents. Someone will call 911, administer first aid, retrieve a fire extinguisher, or take any other appropriate action. Without a safety team and plan in place, these responses will take place spontaneously. The purpose of safety team ministries is to reduce response time and increase the effectiveness of the overall response. For example, designated safety team members will promptly call 911 and respond to the specific emergency, review and update first aid kits, as well as inspect and maintain fire extinguishers. The Safety Team is entrusted with the responsibility of responding to and assisting during such situations.
After reading and studying reports from the FBI and other government agencies, it is evident that "prevention" is more effective than "response." In short, achieving a "hard target" status for the church while staying true to its purpose requires a delicate balance, but it is relatively easy to accomplish. CCNC offers suggestions that will assist your congregation in achieving both objectives. If the congregation intends to establish armed security, it is crucial to consider the associated costs, such as insurance, regular training, and an extensive hiring process.
