Methodologies

Safe Schools Methodologies

BTAM is a proven method of early intervention recommended by the FBI, U.S. Department of Education, and U.S. Secret Service. When implemented consistently, schools can identify students in crisis and prevent acts of targeted violence before they occur.

Through a comprehensive approach of proactive school crisis prevention and sustained initiatives, our BTAM solutions can help give kids a safe place to learn, play, and grow up. PCG’s solutions are built on leading nationally recognized methodologies.
