UPD employs an Active Shooter & Violent Intruder presentation known as ALICE, which is an acronym for:

• Alert
• Lockdown
• Inform
• Counter
• Evacuate

The ALICE Program is designed to give a person or group of people, who may find themselves in a potentially life threatening situation, some mental and physical tools that could play a vital role in their survival.

One does not have to be police, or military trained in order to survive a violent encounter, but they do need to have a frame of reference from which to draw from when making life saving decisions under extreme pressure - much like preparing for a school fire or an earthquake.

Who Should Attend

All faculty, staff and current student assistants. The program is designed so that anybody can employ the strategies. Young, old, male, female - it does not matter.
