Threat Assessment
The purpose of Student Threat Assessment is to identify and address threatening or concerning behaviors before they lead to violence. School threat assessment is a problem-solving approach to violence prevention that focuses on helping students in distress and resolving problems before they escalate into violence. School threat assessment involves both assessment and intervention, since threatening behaviors often signal a need for support services that can be short-term or ongoing. (From Training in School-Based Threat Assessment, Dr. Dewey G. Cornell, Ph.D.)
