Enhanced Violence Assessment and Management
04/16/2012 - 04/17/2012
Westin San Francisco

Violence risk assessment and management is a specialized form of risk assessment that focuses on quantifying the potential violence risk between human beings. Once established, it then focuses on using this insight to drive effective intervention strategies to minimize the risk and divert the behavior from the targeted victim(s).

Gain a clear understanding of how individuals decide to act violently toward others. Benefit from a practical, proven methodology that assesses the behavior of these perpetrators and manages them away from violent acts toward specific targets. The focus is on practical case assessment and management regardless of the environment or elements of a case—whether domestic violence, school violence, workplace violence, or domestic terrorism.
