Conyers Police Department is again offering active shooter/threats preparedness training to citizens interested in learning how to best react to such an incident.  Due to recent tragic events, we have received requests to host another session.  Unfortunately, the police are not the first responders to the scene, you are.  The goal of this training is to educate you on where to go, what to do, and what you should be prepared to do should you find yourself in the area of an active shooter or other threat. 

The session is scheduled for Tuesday, January 28, 2020 at 7 p.m. and may last two hours.  The session will be held in the City Council Chambers, 1194 Scott Street SE Conyers, Georgia 30012.  It is open to the public and pastors and other church leaders are encouraged to attend.  Parents, it is your discretion to bring your children but we ask no child under 13 years of age.  The topics discussed and the video that will be shown depicts violence.

“In today’s climate we realize the importance of training not only our officers, but educating our citizens as well,” explains Police Chief Gene Wilson. “We have had great participation in similar programs last three years and are pleased to offer it once again.”
