Confidence in Crisis Comes From Training

Active shooter preparedness training for corporations, schools, and faith-based organizations — giving your team the knowledge and confidence to respond effectively under pressure.

A Practical, Real-World Approach to Active Shooter Preparedness

Active shooter incidents can unfold in moments. Your response plan can make the difference between chaos and control.
Black River Defensive Solutions provides evidence-based training and consultation to help organizations prepare for, respond to, and recover from active threat situations. Our programs are designed to empower staff, strengthen response coordination, and minimize harm through preparation and confidence.

Comprehensive Training & Planning

Threat Recognition and Prevention

Identify early warning signs and behavioral indicators to prevent escalation before violence occurs.

Emergency Coordination and Communication

Establish clear internal and external communication protocols, including coordination with law enforcement and first responders.

Run Hide Fight Program

Teach staff how to make fast, informed decisions under stress with practical, life-saving options.

Facility Specific Plans

We evaluate your layout and create actionable procedures for lockdowns, evacuation, and shelter-in-place.

Preparedness Reduces Panic and Saves Lives

In an active threat situation, untrained individuals freeze, while trained teams act. A clear, practiced plan drastically improves survival outcomes, reduces confusion, and supports law enforcement response. Investing in training demonstrates your commitment to employee safety, student protection, and community leadership.
