Civilians Response to an Active Shooter Seminar

Due to recent Active shooter events happening across the world, JPD would like to help our community to be prepared. Sign up to receive more information on the FREE training. Law enforcement officers and agencies are frequently requested by schools, businesses, and community members for direction and presentations on what they should do if confronted with an active shooter event.
