MHA offers active shooter preparedness and response training

MHA Nation is holding an active shooter preparedness and threat awareness training session for tribal employees and members of the general public on Nov.

19 from 9:30 a.m until noon. The free course, which was also held Nov. 5, will take place virtually.

It offers guidance on how to identify, potentially prevent, respond to and recover from an active shooter situation.

Emily Sitting Bear, the MHA Emergency Operations Center director, will teach attendees how to recognize warning signs, “assess the potential for violence” and “help others in a bleeding emergency,” according to an MHA announcement.
