Maryland has launched a website designed to be helpful in the most unfortunate circumstances. Its purpose is to help schools, homes, houses of worship and businesses prepare for a potential active assailant incident.
The website is a product of Maryland’s Active Assailant Interdisciplinary Work Group, which convened following the Washington Navy Yard shooting in September 2013. The website aims to provide advice from experts on preparedness.
For example, the section on businesses and employees identifies specific behaviors of concern that employers or co-workers might recognize as signaling a potential problem. It also features potential intervention strategies. And in a worst-case scenario, it identifies survival strategies.
