Benefits: For Parents
A nationwide survey released in 2010 found that the number one concern amongst parents with school-attending children was the safety and security of their children.
Times have changed and the challenges our children face are different than what we faced in school. But what actions can we, as parents, take to ensure the safety of our children at school?
The answer is simple:
Ask your school and/or institutional leadership what their current levels of site safety and security are? If they are unable to provide you a quantifiable measured number or numbers then let them know the value of being able to, and have them contact us.
K-12, college, and university safety can no longer be improved if just the leadership/security team is a part of the solution.
All students, parents, and overall stakeholders have a roll to play, as well as we do….we make sure the specific quantifiable best practices for any institution not only are introduced and measured, but embedded within the culture so now proving “as safe as possible” is possible.
Support Services
The key in development of this program was the knowledge that school personnel did not possess the time, training, or resources to drastically increase their safety and security by themselves.

2. Personal on-site services: training, advising, monitoring, analyzing
3. Emergency On Site Assistant: In the event of a crisis, a NewDawn Staff member will be on your site immediately to help fill any role you deem necessary
