Danbury, CT
Nearly 900 educators met the day before classes begin in Danbury, CT public schools. They were taught some key school safety concepts by Michael Dorn, the Executive Director of Safe Havens, International.
One of the themes of his training was the Window of Life, a concept that helps people remember the top priorities when a crisis occurs: Protect yourself, protect others, protect your building, and contact Public Safety. When people seek to know what to do in a crisis, they can remember these priorities. This can get them on the right path to crisis response, as the first thirty seconds are critical.
This concept will be featured in Staying alive: How to act fast and survive deadly encounters, a book being published by Barron's Educational Series, being released in Spring of 2014. The book is co-authored by Michael Dorn, Stephen Satterly, Sonayia Shepherd and Chris Dorn.
