CHURCH / CHURCH SCHOOL SAFETY INFORMATION AND PROCEDURES
SAFETY TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES
As recently announced at the Preliminary Budget Church Meeting on Feb 8th, there are two safety related educational / training opportunities available to anyone in the congregation who is interested. All are welcome. If you are interested in either of these training opportunities, please fill out the form below and a member of our Safety Team will be in touch with you.
ALICE Training Webinar (Alert Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate)
This will be presented via Zoom on Monday March 23 at 9AM. It is a 3 hour presentation meant to provide an overview of ALICE, an active shooter response training program delivered with a trauma-informed approach. It helps prepares people to survive the unimaginable and is used extensively by our school system to help keep students and staff prepared.
CPR / AED / First Aid Training
This program will be led by staff from the Amherst Fire Department. This is an informational training program that is intended to provide participants with a general knowledge of the current practices and procedures associated with CPR, AED equipment usage, and general first aid. It will probably be a hybrid mix of on-line training and a hands-on session on a Saturday morning. It is not a certification program. Once we have a level of interest established, we will be able to schedule this program.
