We will work with you to determine what safety program initiatives would best suit your community and priorities. Below, you'll hear a bit more about some of our offerings and areas of expertise.
CONSULTANT
Ongoing meetings with your Joffe consultant to support you with your planning and response. What’s on your mind today? What’s in the back of your mind for tomorrow? We’re here to help you cut through the noise, find the right solutions, and provide the resources to get you there.
ASSESSMENTS

TRAINING & DRILLS
Monthly drills are scheduled and implemented to engage your community and build confidence in your staff, faculty, and students. Topics vary by school, but often include fires, lockdowns, and alien abductions. Our consultants bring a wealth of experience around best practices for planning, conducting, and following up on safety drills.
INCIDENT RESPONSE
