The City of Linden will be sponsoring a “Houses of Worship Security Awareness Seminar” on August 19, 2015 from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm at the John T. Gregorio Recreation Center located at 330 Helen St. Linden, N.J.
The seminar will open with a message from Mayor Derek Armstead, followed by a PowerPoint presentation delivered by Captain Jonathan Parham describing the current threats facing houses of worship.
A discussion on physical security measures for Houses of Worship will follow, along with identifying several resources parishioners can utilize to conduct their own facility security audit, or utilize the services of a Crime Prevention Officer from the Linden Police Department.
While the seminar is designed for faith based leaders whose facilities are located within the City of Linden, everyone is welcome!
