As Christian schools and homeschools, we are in the people business, and that is messy. Our schools must wrestle with potential crises and learn how to mitigate, prevent, and respond to the various threats to our organizations. At this training, school leaders will discuss heavy topics, learn best practices in crisis management, and build a plan for implementation and communication. Leaders will discuss plans for preparation, mitigation, and response on technology and data, student suicide and mental health issues, campus safety and security, PR issues, and more. As this training is our inaugural training at our HFWest campus in California, we are adding a Religious Liberties track with Fist Liberty Institute. This track will explore the history of religious liberty legislation and precedent in the US, cover stories of Christian school legal battles, and then focus primarily on the tactical next steps for schools to fortify against internal or external threats of lawsuits.  Who’s It For? Because of the simultaneous tracks, we strongly encourage at least two people to attend from each organization. We recommend Heads of Schools, security officers or equivalent roles, school board member(s), marketing, and/or communications personnel.
