Hanover, VA – On Thursday, July 14, 2016, the Sheriff’s Office once again hosted a presentation at the Hanover County Administrative Building board room where we discussed “Civilian Response to an Active Shooter”. Over 200 members of our community were present. To date, over 500 citizens have attended this presentation and received this valuable information.

The information presented focused on historical case studies and current best practices. This presentation was designed to make our community aware of what they can do to be better prepared and develop a plan should an event like this occur. Partnering with our community to deliver this information and the favorable response we received is indicative of the great partnerships we share in Hanover County. The Sheriff’s Office would like to extend its sincere appreciation to all who attended and made this presentation a success.
