This workshop incorporates the latest research into a practical school-based model of threat/danger assessment that includes increasing early awareness of troubled students and breaking the "code of silence" around the reporting of warning signs. This model uses a team process in schools for effective inquiry, assessment, and response and intervention to threats and other potentially dangerous behavior, with the goal of designing appropriate intervention plans. Five years of data collection on completed threat assessments and case study examples of student threats, writings, and drawings will illustrate the process and lessons learned and provide recommendations for psychologists and other school personnel.
