Report on Best Practices, Model Policies and Procedures, and Legislative Recommendations for Campus Threat Assessment Teams

Recommendations to improve threat assessment teams at public colleges and universities in Virginia. The task force met in-person on three occasions. During the meetings, the task force members had the opportunity to review a draft document discussing best practices for higher education threat assessment teams. The task force reached a consensus that the draft best practices and model policies and procedures guide was inconsistent with the legislative changes made in HB1916 and SB910. DCJS collected the findings and recommendations identified by the task force and incorporated them into this report.
