WHAT IS ACT SURVIVAL?

The word ACT is short for Active Critical Threat. It is also an action one must take to survive an immediate threat. We developed the ACT Survival program to equip and train places of work, worship, and education against targeted violence, and we genuinely believe that one’s safety is only as good as their plan.

Let’s understand your risks, develop a plan, equip your team, and foster a culture of safety.

COMPREHENSIVE RISK ASSESSMENTS

Developing an effective safety plan starts with understanding your organization’s vulnerabilities. We employ an approach that considers all aspects of risk, including the industry, location, property, structures, operations, personnel, clientele, visitors, and more, and identify areas of vulnerability that can be addressed at every level. This approach will enable immediate improvements in risk mitigation, taking into account time, resources, and budget to address the organization’s needs and goals in a manageable and attainable way. Below is what to expect from a comprehensive risk assessment:

  • Vulnerability evaluation questionnaire

  • On-site property & operations survey

  • Detailed risk report with your organization's safety rating

  • Threat mitigation prioritizing & planning

  • Active critical threat protection & termination standby services

WORKPLACE VIOLENCE (WPV) TRAINING

ACT Survival originated by presenting workplace violence prevention and training to faith-based organizations in the Central Valley. We saw immense value in what was being received, so this initiative expanded to other industries and institutions. The presentations we offer, which can last anywhere from an hour to an entire day, are tailored to your organization's and Human Resources’ needs, and train all employee or volunteer levels. Staff will be expected to learn the following:

  • Workplace safety & prevention
