Safe and Sound Schools Partnership

MSU’s Prevent 2 Protect partner – Safe and Sound Schools – hosts regional School Safety Summits, workshops, and trainings with national-level experts in school safety who actively engage and connect stakeholders in the process of improving school safety. Communities throughout Michigan have access to specialized trainings  developed by Prevent 2 Protect.

Prevent 2 Protect offers specialized training to support:

  • Educators and school-based mental health providers.
  • Community-based medical and behavioral health professionals who provide direct services to adolescents and their families.
  • Law enforcement and juvenile/criminal justice professionals.
  • Community stakeholders to include faith and service organization

The goal of Prevent 2 Protect’s education and training programs is to develop new skills and strengthen existing ones to support local, state, and national efforts to prevent adolescent involvement in targeted school attacks.

Prevent 2 Protect’s Hub provides technical assistance in the form of after-action assessments, project evaluations, and provide expert advice to schools, behavioral and medical health professionals, law enforcement, and community stakeholders.
