Window Dressing or Real Protection? A Roadmap for Securing Sacred Spaces

This 42-page white paper, published in April 2022, was developed by a panel of recognized law enforcement and security professionals convened by SCN to assist organizations in making educated decisions about the role of private security officers as part of the security strategy of Jewish institutions. The report was designed to support established security programs and assist in creating new ones at synagogues, community centers, schools, and other centers of Jewish life.
