Overview

Summary

General work description:

Sacramento County is requesting proposals from qualified presenters with demonstrated experience in providing instruction on the topic of school threat assessment team training.

SCHOOL THREAT ASSESSMENT TEAM TRAINING

Sacramento County is requesting proposals from qualified presenters with demonstrated experience in providing instruction on the topic of school threat assessment teams.

Instruction will incorporate adult learning techniques including problem-based facilitated discussions, real-world case studies, tabletop exercises and learning activities for a multi-disciplinary and collaborative approach in threat assessment team creation and management.

The 16-hour course must be designed to actively engage participants in practical approaches in the recognition of targeted violence on school campuses and prevention through the use of a multi-disciplinary threat assessment team. Subjects must focus on training law enforcement and school safety personnel to conduct threat assessments when there is an identified threat to school safety. Course must be designed at an advanced level to enhance participants’ knowledge, skills and abilities in a practical, research and evidence-based behavioral threat assessment methodology, investigative techniques and development of management strategies to address school-based threats.

The target audience for this course is K-12 school safety professionals and stakeholders, including law enforcement professionals, teachers, principals, counselors, school psychologists, administrators, mental health professionals, and school district personnel with security responsibilities operating within the Central California Intelligence Center’s area of responsibility.

I. MINIMUM COURSE CONTENT WILL INCLUDE:

1. Background of threat assessment.
   
   
2. Justification for threat assessment.
   
   
3. Threat assessment research principles.
   
   
4. Threat assessment risk factors.
   
   
5. Behavioral indicators related to attacks against K-12 school.
   
   
6. Concept and advantages of a community-based, multidisciplinary threat assessment system.
   
   
7. Training labs, case studies and tabletop exercises applying principles learned.
   
   
8. Guidance on effective collaboration with public safety partners.
   
   
9. Threat management strategies, including mental health, administrative, civil and criminal strategies.
   
   
10. California Education Codes relating to school safety and homicidal threats or perceived threats at school or school activity.
    
    
11. California Penal Codes relating to Gun Violence Restraining Orders, including execution of lawful search warrant.
    
    
12. California Welfare and Institutions Codes, Tarasoff Duty or Duty to Protect, relating to mental health, weapons seizure, or potential criminal conduct.

II. COURSE CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS

This sixteen (16) hour class must be approved for our use by California Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) by the time of delivery.

III. COUNTY CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

Upon selection, training provider will sign a one (1)-year contract to provide up to eight (8) in-person presentations of the above stated training content in Section I. This County contract will be written with the option, upon mutual agreement, to sign two (2) additional one (1)-year renewals, for a total of three (3) years.

IV. AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY

Central California Intelligence Center has an area of responsibility spanning thirty-four counties, from the Oregon border to Bakersfield. Because of this area, training classes will often be held outside the Sacramento region, making travel necessary. The following are the counties covered by the Central California Intelligence Center:

Northern Region

Siskiyou, Modoc, Trinity, Shasta, Lassen, Tehama, Glenn, Butte, Plumas, Colusa, Yuba, Sutter

Central Region

Yolo, Solano, Sacramento, Sierra, Nevada, Placer, El Dorado, San Joaquin, Calaveras, Stanislaus, Alpine, Mono, Inyo, Amador

Southern Region

Tuolumne, Merced, Madera, Fresno, Kings, Tulare, Kern, Mariposa

By submitting a proposal, it is with the understanding that a course could be presented in any of these locations at any time.

V. FINANCIAL EXPECTATIONS

When determining course costs, consider the following: mileage; airline costs; rental car costs; travel time; cost of meals, lodging, and fuel; cost of any published course materials needed to present the training curriculum. Each of these should be taken into consideration when drafting proposal. Cost proposal must be itemized to include these items that apply to the course. Neither the Central California Intelligence Center nor the County of Sacramento will be responsible for any additional costs outside of the agreed upon contract price.

Background

California Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) Grant Guidance dictates that all terrorism-related training must be competitively bid. In keeping within Homeland Security Grant Program requirements, this document contains the training needs for Sacramento County (herein known as the County) and the Central California Intelligence Center (CCIC).
