This is a book about behavioral threat assessment that focuses on prevention and early intervention. It’s about thoughtful connection, inclusion, prosocial relationship building, and the restoration of meaningful and positive experiences for young people within the school environment. It’s about the importance of staying objective, avoiding assumptions, and eliminating prejudgment. Finally, it’s about redirecting that person to constructive, nonviolent solutions and avoiding arrest, institutionalization, or worse.

I highly recommend this book to anyone attempting to maintain a preventive behavioral threat assessment system, as well as anyone interested in implementing a threat assessment system for a school or community. The template offered provides an excellent navigation chart for starting or refining a system, and the examples cover a broad stroke of threats and behavior types, making for excellent tabletop discussions and practice. The authors remind us that we can identify youths who are on the pathway to violence, and we can use the principles of behavioral threat assessment and the creative responses of professionals to find the pathway back to a constructive, connected life.
