Behavioral Threat Assessment

Behavioral Threat Assessment is a process used to identify, evaluate, and manage behaviors that suggest someone may pose a risk of harm to themselves or others. It involves analyzing a person's actions, statements, and context to understand their intentions and level of threat. The goal is to intervene early and prevent violence through careful assessment, support, and, if needed, security measures. This approach focuses on understanding the individual’s behavior rather than jumping to conclusions, aiming to ensure safety while respecting privacy and rights.
