Question 1

What does the Secret Service recommend for school threat assessment?

Accepted Answer

The U.S. Secret Service National Threat Assessment Center (NTAC) recommends that every school establish a multidisciplinary threat assessment team using a structured, evidence-based approach. Their research emphasizes early identification, consistent documentation, and intervention before violence occurs. Homicide Zero's platform implements these recommendations as standardized technology.

Question 2

How many states require behavioral threat assessment teams?

Accepted Answer

As of 2025, over 20 states have enacted legislation requiring or recommending behavioral threat assessment teams in K-12 schools. The trend is accelerating — but most mandates lack standardized tools for implementation. Homicide Zero provides the technology layer that turns policy into practice.

Question 3

What evidence supports early intervention in violence prevention?

Accepted Answer

NTAC research shows that in nearly every targeted school attack, the attacker exhibited observable warning signs beforehand. Structured behavioral threat assessment — when implemented consistently — enables schools to identify and intervene with at-risk individuals before violence occurs. The evidence base spans two decades of case studies and clinical research.

Question 4

How does Homicide Zero support state-level implementation?

Accepted Answer

The platform is cloud-based SaaS designed for scale — from a single district to statewide deployment. It provides standardized screening instruments, centralized documentation, and aggregate reporting dashboards that give state education agencies visibility into prevention activity across all participating districts.

Question 5

What data does the platform provide for legislative reporting?

Accepted Answer

The platform generates aggregate, de-identified data on screening volume, risk levels identified, interventions initiated, and outcomes tracked. This data supports legislative reporting requirements, grant applications, and evidence-based policy development — without exposing individual student records.
