OUR STORY
Working Together Towards a Better and Safer Tomorrow
The Coalition began in September 2015 with a meeting of 10 church security leaders from 6 organization. At the end of 2017 we have grown to 50 faith based organizations.
In the beginning we were simply trying to deal with the challenges of safety and security in our Churches. We started with different perspectives and a willingness to work together and share what we had.
The Security Leaders Coalition emerged out of a pursuit to share information, learn from each other and make our organizations safer places for our kids, members and guests.
