Big Announcement in News, below.

For over 20 years, the staff at Schoenfeldt and Associates has been providing training and consulting in crisis response, violence prevention, worker safety programs, disaster recovery, substance abuse, suicide intervention and related topics. Our work in schools and communities has earned us an international reputation as being a pioneer in school safety and crisis response programs. From preschool programs through K-12, public and private schools, and colleges and universities, Schoenfeldt & Associates has been called on to assist with providing a safe environment for all. Whether it is help to assess a current crisis response system, write a crisis response plan, conduct a physical site safety audit, design a school specific training exercise or work with a system as they recover from a crisis event, Schoenfeldt & Associates is available to you as they have been to others all over the world for many years.

We’ve worked with high profile communities such as Littleton, Colorado; San Diego, California; New York City, New York; Sacramento, California and Seattle, Washington. We have assisted in their recovery process.

THE BEST CRISIS RESPONSE PLAN IN THE WORLD WILL NOT PREVENT EVERY CRISIS FROM OCCURING.

One of the things we are most proud of, however, is the work we have done in schools and communities that have not received high profile media attention. Either because an incident was prevented or the elements of the crisis response program were so solidly in place that the impact of an incident was decreased. The hope is for the intensity to be reduced to the point of NOT receiving national media attention and allowing the school to return to normal with a minimal disruption. That is our over riding goal for every school and community we work with.

Mary Schoenfeldt, owner of Schoenfeldt & Associates, is the author is several books on Crisis Response, has served as the subject matter expert for an acclaimed interactive software program called Aftermath; School Edition, and has written numerous magazine articles for publications such as National School Safety Journal, Student Assistance Journal, and Pittsburgh Parent Magazine. She has contributed to publications and acted as Advisor to US Department of Education, State of California, State of Kentucky, State of Washington and has been interview by USA Today, the Good Morning America television show and various violence prevention and school safety newsletters and publications. She is a sought after speaker, trainer and consultant.

Our materials and expertise have been used in almost every state in the union as well as in locations such as Canada, Australia, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Israel, Switzerland, Nigeria and Mexico. Even though much of the material available today on school safety and crisis response is based on our early work we have not stopped there. We are on the cutting edge of current thought of school safety and are considered one of the experts in the development of the Incident Command System for Schools. We also are the foremost experts in designing Full Scale Community Wide Drills specifically for School Settings with Critical Incident Stress Management built into the drill design to protect the students and staff from being traumatized by the training exercise.
