HOWs
“HOW” stands for “House of Worship,” and the term applies to all churches, synagogues, mosques, etc.
Like many of my colleagues, I’ve been training HOW security officers and teams in recent years, as violent crime within HOWs is on the increase, particularly when worshipers are congregated in and/or near the physical facility or are attending off-campus religious activities.
When such teams are appointed, organized, and charged with various duties, a competent, comprehensive, written policy quickly becomes an acute necessity for safety, competency, and legal reasons.
My esteemed friend and colleague, Manny Kapelsohn has now composed, and is marketing, such a written policy. I assisted in the final editing.
Manny is simultaneously a renowned attorney and firearms trainer, and the two of us have conducted countess training programs together. Manny also regularly provides professional expert assistance to litigants in deadly-force cases, both criminal and civil, renders critical trial testimony routinely, and is one of the very few who is genuinely qualified to compose such a document.
This “House of Worship Firearms and Use of Force Policy Bundle” (Policy, Comments, etc) document is now available at:
On the website, click “Products.”
Upon checkout, enter the discount code “FARNAM25.”
Individual users will, of course, need to tweak this policy document in order for it to specifically apply to their particular situation. The final version they intend to implement will naturally need to be reviewed and approved by their own attorney before being placed in force.
Yet, Manny has done all the hard work for you!
Smart HOW security teams will take advantage of this!
