Community Threat Assessment

In accordance with federal law, 天美传媒视频无限制观看 formed the Community Threat Assessment Team on January 1, 2014. The Team is comprised of representatives from Counseling & Psychological Services, Human Resources, Student Life, Academics Affairs, and Public Safety. The Community Threat Assessment Team is in place specifically to help preserve the safety and security of the University community in collaboration with other University services. The team serves as a proactive mechanism to identify and address members of the community that may pose a danger to self, others and/or both. The team considers situations that involve students, staff members and visitors to the campus community. The team meets on an as-needed basis.

The Community Threat Assessment Team seeks to identify concerns in their early phases in order to work appropriately and constructively with all parties before problems escalate into violent or dangerous outcomes. We encourage everyone in the University community to seek help for others when there are safety concerns. To report a concern, please contact the Department of Public Safety at (203) 254-4090.
