Even as other types of crime drop, violence is soaring. FBI data for 2020 show a 30 percent increase in murder, the highest year-over-year increase ever. Aggravated assault is up 12 percent. Much of this is driven by the pandemic fallout, economic disruption, and political and cultural divisions. Now more than ever, it is critical that all organizations develop and implement comprehensive violence prevention programs for their employees, contractors, and volunteers. This 60-minute webinar will provide participants:
