The National Threat Assessment Center

The National Threat Assessment Center (NTAC) is a part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that studies and analyzes threats related to violence, especially in schools and workplaces. Its goal is to identify warning signs and develop strategies to prevent potential attacks. NTAC gathers data, conducts research, and provides guidance to help organizations recognize early indicators of violent behavior. By understanding these threats, it aims to improve safety measures, foster safer environments, and reduce the risk of violence through informed prevention efforts.
