A.L.i.C.E. Program – Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, and Evacuate

As you may know, our UA Police Department has adopted the A.L.i.C.E. program teaching proactive measures to be taken when faced with an assailant entering a building or classroom. 

 A.L.i.C.E. stands for Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, and Evacuate.  This nationally-renowned training was developed following examination of school shootings, such as the one that occurred at Colombine . . . and closer to our community we consider Appalachian School of Law, Case Western Reserve University and now Chardon.

 UAPD will be here to deliver A.L.i.C.E. training sessions, as follows:
