Since its launch in 2014, the National Center for Campus Public Safety (NCCPS) has provided resources and technical assistance to campus public safety professionals, emergency management officials, and senior leadership by creating professional development opportunities, examining emerging campus safety issues, and adding to our comprehensive online library of resources relevant to these communities. This presentation is from a webinar on NCCPS activities including highlights from emerging issues forums on institutionalizing the Clery Act, global safety, policing off-campus communities, marijuana legalization, police and community relations, and campus carry; the Trauma-Informed Sexual Assault Investigation and Adjudication Institute; outcomes of a nationwide higher education emergency management needs assessment; and other projects. Director Kim Richmond also discusses future NCCPS activities and initiatives and solicites feedback from attendees on what topics of concern should be addressed in the future.
