The Comprehensive School Threat Assessment Guidelines (CSTAG) and Law Enforcement

Critics have campaigned for the nationwide removal of law enforcement from schools. In response, this presentation describes the valuable role of school resource officers in behavioral threat assessment using the CSTAG model. Across multiple studies there is consistent evidence of the safety, effectiveness, and fairness of the CSTAG process, including law enforcement outcomes.

Participants will learn the 5-step CSTAG process, the 4 classification outcomes, and the role of SROs.
