UJCVP Secure Community Initiative

AN URGENT NEED


Over the past several years, antisemitism and acts of violence targeting Jews and Jewish institutions have increased dramatically across the United States. In response, the UJCVP has entered into partnership with the Secure Community Network (SCN), the official homeland security and safety initiative of the organized Jewish community in North America to enhance our community’s safety, security, and preparedness posture. Through the regional partnership with SCN and the Jewish Federation of Richmond, we hired Dave Brackins as our Regional Security Advisor for the Virginia Peninsula and Richmond.

Community Security Services

Our Regional Security Advisor provides services to community institutions to enhance their safety, security, and emergency preparedness posture. These services are provided free of charge to our Jewish community institutions and synagogues on the Virginia Peninsula. 


  • Security Advice & Consultation: The foundation of a security program begins with an assessment of an institution or organization’s current security posture. Our Regional Security Advisor can advise and coach the institution through that process. The advisor will meet with the organization’s leadership to identify needs and to develop a roadmap towards building a strong safety and security posture and culture. Our advisor also conducts formal Threat, Vulnerability, and Risk Assessments (TVRAs) to support security planning and applications for grant monies from federal, state, and local governments for security enhancements. Request a consultation or a security assessment.


  • Safety and Security Training: One of the most effective, no-cost measures to enhance an organization’s safety and security posture is training its members, staff, and others in situational awareness, Active Threat Response, and Greeter-Usher practices. These classes, and others, customized to the needs of each organization, build personal confidence, preparedness, and resilience in the face of a crisis or emergency and begin the development of a safety and security culture in the organization. Request safety, security, and preparedness training.


  • Information Sharing: Nationally, SCN maintains a Duty Desk with an on-call Analyst available to Jewish community leaders and government partners. The Duty Desk provides 24-hour threat monitoring, intelligence analysis, and liaison with local, state, and federal agencies. Locally, our Security team operates SCN Alert, a state-of-the-art emergency communications platform that allows them to provide vital, timely information to staff, community institutions, and partners through SMS and email notifications to subscribers. Individual community members can subscribe to SCN's Daily Update of security related news.
