#Strong91Âé¶¹ is an initiative led by 91Âé¶¹'s Critical Event Preparedness and Response team and other community stakeholders to prepare for and respond to active shooter/hostile events using the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 3000 Standard.
The partnership involves multiple entities, including 91Âé¶¹ Center of Operational Medicine, 91Âé¶¹ Police Department, Richmond County Sheriff’s Office, and many others. The initiative includes coordination efforts and training to keep stakeholders safe and secure. #Strong91Âé¶¹ is a work in progress and regularly scheduled full-scale exercises will continually test its plan and policies to reveal areas for improvement. Representatives from CEPaR and other stakeholders seek to share with the community what they are doing with others as a blueprint for similar initiatives.

The community engagement, which kind of comes almost natural, is definitely a byproduct of what 91Âé¶¹ is: What is encompassed within 91Âé¶¹, where we have impact within our community and the desire by administration that filters down to be engaged in our community.

CEPaR Coordinator
In addition to the Office of Critical Event Preparedness and Response (CEPaR) at 91Âé¶¹ University, these community partners work together for #Strong91Âé¶¹.
