“Katherine is the person you call when you're trying to make sense of a tragedy.” - Audie Cornish, from her CNN award winning podcast, The Assignment with Audie Cornish

Katherine Schweit

Creator of the FBI's

Active Shooter Program

Get an insider look at what we’ve learned and failed to learn about protecting our places of commerce, houses of worship, businesses, and schools while demystifying the language around active shooters, mass killings, threat assessment teams, and more.

Filled with knowledge on the current state of mass shootings in America, you will learn the definitions, statistics, and ultimately, how to be a part of the solution.

We don't need to shy away from the gun conversation. Instead, we can approach the topics of guns with the courage to learn, openness to dialogue, and the willingness to consider the many solutions on the table while discovering new ones that will benefit our communities.

We can take ownership of this challenging discussion to work together to make a positive impact.

Katherine’s mission is to educate the public on their role in reducing and ending gun violence. While in Texas, anchor Walt Maciborski with CBS Austin sat down with the Creator of the FBI’s Active Shooter Program to discuss the importance of communication technology in crisis response as part of his series, Tech This Out.

Where communications fail there are more casualties and more problems. Quality emergency communications systems that get the alerts out right away and tie other resources together are the solution. That’s how lives are saved.
