“The Court Safety & Security Conference was so good that it made me realize really how bad our court security is. I gained a lot of good ideas about where and how to get information to improve security before an incident occurs.”
COURT SAFETY & SECURITY
Court Safety & Security Conference March 3-5, 2015 | Appleton, Wisconsin A safe courthouse is essential to the administration of justice because it serves as the center of many government, legal, and community activities. However, it can be vulnerable to threats of violence for all who use the courthouse facilities. The Court Safety and Security (CSS) Conference is designed to provide law enforcement and court personnel with effective strategies and best practices to enhance courthouse security and prevent violence. Additionally, the conference will provide resources for a collaborative approach to court security.
− Past Participant, 2014
The 2015 CSS Conference will focus on tools and resources for court security planning committees, victim/witness safety considerations, behaviors associated with mental health disorders, workplace violence, community and media collaboration, and security recommendations from security practitioners. The conference also includes case studies from the Tulsa, Oklahoma shooting as well as the Cedarville Rancheria Tribal Headquarters shooting.
This conference is coordinated in partnership with:
