  • 04/26/17

TORRANCE, CA – Keenan, a California-based insurance brokerage and consulting firm for schools and public agencies, has launched a new School Safety Center website providing comprehensive resources to help schools address emerging risks of child abuse and bullying, campus safety and security, and Title IX anti-discrimination compliance. Keenan highlighted the School Safety Center at the California Association of School Business Officials (CASBO) Annual Conference, April 12-15, 2017, in Long Beach.

The site is designed to bring together the information schools need to better protect students, staff and their communities while enhancing a safe environment for students to learn and prosper. It offers a wide range of best practices, tools and training courses, at no cost, that institutions can utilize to achieve their goal of providing such an environment.

Six modules are available, each filled with in-depth information on the following issues:

  • Abuse Prevention
  • Bullying Prevention
  • Title IX Compliance
  • Campus Safety
  • Best Practices
  • Additional Resources

The School Safety Center will be updated on an ongoing basis with the latest developments in regulatory compliance, news and best practices for keeping schools safer.
