Threat Assessments Near Kapolei, HI: Building Safer Schools and Stronger Communities

The Redhook Resilience Project: A Case Study in Ballistic Preparedness and Design Collaboration

According to the U.S. Secret Service NTAC, over 90% of targeted violence cases reviewed from 2016–2022 involved people who had previously shown observable warning behaviors — often noticed but not documented.

When potential violence or concerning behavior surfaces — in a school, corporate office, or community setting — the question arises: “Who actually handles a threat assessment?” The answer isn’t one person. It’s a multidisciplinary team — professionals trained to recognize behavioral indicators, assess risk, and intervene before violence occurs.

Hawaiʻi’s Office of Homeland Security leads statewide targeted violence prevention (TVP). CrisisWire explains how private consulting integrates with state efforts, using federal standards, academic research, and leadership liability frameworks.

Budget limits don’t excuse security failures. In 2025, CrisisWire shows how low-cost school security audits uncover systemic flaws and protect leadership from liability.
