We work diligently to provide training, both in-person and online, for Jewish community organizations in the Bay Area and Northern California. Our trainings are centered on creating a trauma-informed environment, learning without fear, and empowering community members to take action in whatever situations may arise. We provide a multi-faceted approach to our training modules so participants can understand the full scope of the threat environment and how it relates to them and the work they do. Our programs are suited to groups as small as 12 and as large as 120.

Our Offerings Include:

Security Fundamentals

Master the basics of security to prepare your organization to respond in case of an active threat. This training is the crux of our work and covers situational awareness, bringing a security mindset to receiving visitors, run-hide-fight, bomb threat response, and the power of hello.

Learn how to improve your daily safety habits, make smart decisions in difficult circumstances, and use best practices when navigating college and university campuses. This training is for college students and Jewish campus organizations interested in improving their security posture.

Improve your organization’s response to cyber threats by learning the types of scams and phishing attempts you may receive, how to respond effectively, and prepare for such attacks in the newest threat environment.

Prepare volunteers, staff, and members to manage access control of their site, assess ambiguous situations, respond using the FEMA Incident Command Structure, and engage in emergency response if danger arises.

We offer tabletop training exercises (TTX) that can be tailored to your organization’s concerns. We require completion of the Security Fundamentals training and a review of your organization’s Emergency Operations Plan before this can be scheduled with our team.

Consultations & Vulnerability Assessments

Our Community Security Advisor provides personal one-on-one security consultations to assist you in meeting your goals and needs. Whether your organization needs help with grant applications, security training, or feedback on proposed security initiatives, we are here to help.

Our team also provides support through Vulnerability Assessments, which involves a member of our team coming to your organization, conducting a walk-through assessment of your site, and providing recommendations to mitigate security vulnerabilities found during the visit. This report will be provided to you and your team that can later be used in a nonprofit security grant application if you choose.
