The Fund offers emergency preparedness and mitigation resources as a value-added service to members with Property, Auto, Liability, and Workers’ Compensation coverage.
Safety and Security Overview
The safety of students, staff, and visitors is the top priority of all educational organizations, so it’s essential to have a comprehensive emergency management and school security program in place to protect against potential threats.
This work has never been more challenging amid new requirements and emerging risks. The Fund offers preparedness and mitigation resources as a value-added service to members with Property, Auto, Liability, and Workers’ Compensation coverage. There’s nothing more important at the Fund than helping our members create safer and more resilient schools and communities through excellent planning, training and resources.
Here’s How We Can Help
Creating safe and secure schools is an ongoing process that starts with developing a comprehensive emergency management program that promotes a common understanding of the fundamentals, including risk assessment, planning, and decision making.
