This year's national conference will follow up on last year's sold out conference theme of Best Practices for Mass Violence Response and we plan to include detailed presentations regarding some of the more recent mass violence incidents including the Route 91 Harvest Festival concert shooting in Las Vegas, the Marshall County High School shooting in western Kentucky, the First Baptist Church shooting in Sutherland Springs, Texas, the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, Florida and the shooting at the Pathway Home at the Veteran's Home in Yountville, California.
Also planned is an in-depth look at issues surrounding the Sikh Temple shooting in Wisconsin and the train stabbing in Portland, Oregon last year.
The conference agenda will devote time to learning about effective community partnerships that provide unique services to victims of crime.
The diverse group of subject matter experts will include speakers from tribal communities who will address the impact mass violence has had on them, especially the recent tragedy in Las Vegas and an incident in California a few years ago that taught us about how best to work with tribal communities.
Technical training sessions will be held on the federal Office for Victims of Crime mass violence response toolkit and best practices for creating local integrated crisis response plans with county emergency management partners.
