Description

*In Person Event* 

Is your organization ready to act against targeted violence*, whether from current/former employees or external threats? Ignoring potential threats, or lack of preparedness, can jeopardize your employees' safety and potentially ruin your company brand forever.

We invite business leaders, HR professionals, elected officials, school superintendents, and decision makers to join Greater Rochester Chamber as we partner with the Rochester Threat Advisory Committee (ROCTAC) at this Rochester TRENDS event featuring experts who will share how you can keep your employees and organization safe from potential targeted violence. 

This two-part presentation will center around an active-killer event:

• Prevention phase (ROC-TAC)
• Chaos & Recovery phases

ROCTAC, built in partnership with social services agencies, the private sector, and regional law enforcement officials, collaborate to prevent acts of targeted violence before it happens.

* Targeted violence is premeditated violence and is usually directed at a specific individual, group, or business. A perpetrator of targeted violence typically responds to a perceived grievance or acts on behalf of a particular ideology. Targeted violence is different from impulsive, reactive, or emotional acts of violence. Some examples of targeted violence are school shootings, workplace violence, domestic violence, stalking, and terrorist attacks.
