Tier B - Prevention insights
- Normalize early reporting: make it easy to share concerns (anonymous options, clear points of contact). - Track patterns, not single incidents: repeated leakage, fixation, grievances, or boundary testing deserve attention. - Use multidisciplinary review: ensure security, HR/student affairs, mental health, and leadership share context. - Practice communication: define who sends alerts, what language is used, and what 'protective action' means on-site. - After-action learning: review policies, access controls, and response timelines after drills and real incidents.
