School Violence Protection Program (SVPP) Solutions
To many people, school shootings are unthinkable. But to security personnel, law enforcement and first responders, it’s an emergency they must be prepared for at all times. Despite the awareness raised around school shootings and school districts’ efforts to prevent them, school shootings—and deaths—have persisted throughout the last 20 years. Mutualink’s efforts to create the best interoperable radio communications for schools has resulted in a formidable school safety alert system that aims to protect more students, teachers and staff than ever before.
Connect with Police and First Responder
With our LNK360™ software and the ISSI, your security team’s radios can easily and quickly connect with local police and first responders at the touch of a button, looping all the critically important players into your emergency situation. All involved also get access to push-to-talk, MCPTT and OTT PTT. Our interoperable radio communications technology is the most powerful tool law enforcement has available to them today to prevent or mitigate the damages of school shootings.
Alyssa’s Law and Panic Alarm Buttons
Alyssa’s Law—named after the Alyssa Alhadeff killed in the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School shooting—mandates panic alarm systems for schools that connect to local police and first responders. Mutualink’s school safety alert system helps school districts in states where this law has been passed to satisfy this requirement and includes panic button systems for schools and active shooter apps for schools.
Making the choice to include Mutulink’s LNK360 software in your School Violence Protection Program (SVPP) is a step toward providing better protection to everyone on your campus. Because we cannot prevent guns from getting into the hands of dangerous people, the best way to prepare to fight any threats on school grounds is by having the best automated emergency response and interoperable radio communications system possible. Information is key and, looking back on so many school shootings, it’s easy to see how fewer lives would have been lost with better communications systems. Put better safeguards in place at your K-12 school, college or university by contacting Mutualink to talk about installing the best school safety alert and response system available.
