Joffe safety expert working with school administrators
Consulting Partnerships

A dedicated safety partner, working alongside your school all year.

Consulting partnerships give your school a named Joffe expert who learns your campus, knows your staff, and is there when you need to make a hard call. You get a dedicated partner who knows your campus, your staff, and your community, and stays with you all year.

What It Is

More than consulting. It's an ongoing relationship.

Most safety support is reactive. Something happens, you call someone, they come out, and then they're gone. A Joffe Consulting Partnership works differently. Your dedicated partner gets to know your school before a crisis, not during one.

Partnerships are built around your school's specific context: your campus layout, your staff capacity, your surrounding community, the priorities you want to move on. Over the course of the year, your partner helps you make steady, systematic progress, rather than scrambling when something forces the issue.

Full Scope

Everything included in your partnership.

Consulting partnerships cover the full range of school safety, from daily operations to long-range planning and crisis response.

On-Site Campus Visits

Your partner comes to you. Regularly scheduled visits keep them current on your campus, your staff changes, and your evolving safety picture.

Custom Safety Plan Development

Your emergency operations plan, reunification procedures, and crisis protocols, written for your specific campus and community.

Behavioral Threat Assessment

Your partner helps your school respond to active concerns using a structured, evidence-based evaluation process, and works with your team to build a formal behavioral threat assessment program. Higher tiers include ongoing program maintenance and implementation support.

First-Responder Coordination

Your partner builds and maintains direct relationships with local law enforcement and EMS, so your school isn't starting from scratch when something happens.

Staff Training & Drills

Facilitated drills and staff training sessions tailored to your school's specific procedures. Practical, scenario-based, and built for retention.

Annual Safety Review

A formal end-of-year review of your safety posture, what improved, what still needs attention, and what the plan is for next year. A consistent yearly checkpoint that builds on the last one.

Policy & Compliance Guidance

Your partner stays current on state and local compliance requirements so you don't have to. When regulations change, you hear about it from someone who can explain what it means for your school.

Included

Joffe Membership

All consulting partnerships include full Joffe Membership: 24/7 crisis hotline, 100+ on-demand trainings, priority emergency communication enrollment, and access to the Joffe network.

Ongoing Advisory Access

Between visits and scheduled calls, your partner is reachable. When something comes up mid-year, you have someone to call who already knows your school.

How It Works

From first call to year-round partnership.

Every partnership starts with a conversation and ends with a school that knows exactly where it stands and what to do next.

1

Discovery Call

We start by learning about your school: your size, your current safety infrastructure, your concerns, and where you feel least confident. No sales pitch. Just questions.

2

Safety Assessment

Your partner conducts an on-campus assessment to establish a clear baseline, identifying what's working, what's missing, and where to focus first.

3

Custom Safety Plan

Together, you build a safety plan tailored to your campus. Your partner walks through it with your leadership team and helps you put it into practice.

4

Year-Round Support

Regular visits, training sessions, ongoing advisory access, and an annual review. Your partner stays engaged so your safety program doesn't stall between crises.

From Our Partners

What schools say about working with Joffe.

Having a dedicated Joffe partner changed how our whole team thinks about safety. It's not a box we check anymore. It's a conversation we're always having.

Katie C.
St. Matthew's School

As the CFO, Safety and Security falls under me. Although we do the best we can, my Director of Safety and Security and I are not experts or on top of all things from a safety and security standpoint, as it is virtually impossible to be. This is where we rely on Joffe Emergency and their subject matter experts to be our strategic partner in all things from a safety and security standpoint.

James C.
Randolph School

Joffe folks are informed, transparent, no-nonsense professionals who present what they know without marketing overtones, with clear expertise in a well-needed arena.

Rebecca H.
Sequoyah School

Staff are responsive and produced high quality documents, plans, and resources for us to implement right away. Our team enjoyed the training and appreciated the clear project plan and ongoing meetings with the Joffe team.
