You ARE a Soft Target. What can you do about it?

Hosted by the Association of Midwest Museums and the Minnesota Association of Museums Annual Meeting and Conference

A soft target is described as a person or thing that is relatively unprotected or vulnerable, especially to armed or terrorist attack.   This session discusses the reality of recognizing the weaknesses in the protection of our institutions, and determining reasonable improvements.

The session leader will help management recognize present threats to the safety of staff, visitors, and others.   Offering practical, realistic solutions regardless of the size and scope of the institution, its staff, or budget.

Attendees will learn about present threats throughout the U.S., and discuss the varied aspects in working with local agencies.  This is an open discussion where attendees will have the opportunity to voice their concerns and available solutions.
