Preparing for active threats on campus


CCAD strives to make sure all students, faculty, staff, and visitors feel safe on campus. That’s why our Safety & Security team undergoes regular training on emergency response, including active shooter situations, which could happen at any community. While there is no current threat to campus, we want to make sure our community is prepared for such an event, should one ever occur. Therefore, we have created this video, which outlines important steps to take during an active shooter situation or any other active threat scenario. Please review at your convenience and remember to run if it’s safe, hide if it’s necessary, and fight if you must.
