How is an assessment done?
Security, threats, safety, assessments, etc., can have different meanings for everybody. Our goal is to make sure that you feel safe in your respective environments whether that be at home, work, church, or any environment. Our initial meeting will be to determine what your respective needs are and how to proceed with the assessment. Upon completion of the assessment a summary will be provided and discussed with the client.
