TERO Training was a Success!

“The Threat Evaluation and Reporting Overview (TERO) is a three-hour introductory training focusing on a behavioral approach to violence prevention. The TERO raises awareness about the risk factors, triggers and stressors, and warning behaviors that could impact a person’s decision to commit an act of targeted violence. Further, it outlines the mitigating factors that could help prevent acts of targeted violence, while emphasizing the importance of community involvement in seeking help for individuals, and respecting their privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties.”

39 safety council members successfully completed the 3-hour TERO training yesterday at the Portage County EMA!

Thank you to Homeland Security and the Ohio School Safety Center for facilitating the training and the Portage EMA for hosting the event at their facility!

Collaboration will always be the key to making Portage County a safer place to work!
