React Solutions

About React Solutions

A small company with big expectations, goals, and a powerful message.  The idea started a decade ago while training police officers in the tactics needed to respond to and address the active shooter.  While heavily involved with training law enforcement it became evident that no one was training the “true” first responders: school teachers, school administration, food services, transportation, and the general public who may find themselves in the midst of an active shooter event. Police and fire departments, in most active shooter incidents, will not arrive until the incident is over. Training the “true” first responder is critical because actions taken in the first few minutes may make a difference.  With simple, relevant training and preparation you can help mitigate these tragic incidents.   

 

React Solutions took the next step.  Understanding most people could benefit from simple and relevant awareness & preparedness training, React Solutions added personal awareness, general safety, and verbal de-escalation tactics to some of their courses.  React Solutions motto is "prepared not paranoid" and their courses offer an important and necessary message for all who attend.
