Faith-based organizations have traditionally lacked the security measures and emergency preparedness planning that businesses and other secular groups have put into place. The Creation Museum and Answers in Genesis are pleased to announce its next security seminar, Security and Emergency Planning for Faith-Based Organizations.

This four-hour seminar presented by AiG’s Chief Security Officer, Jeff Hawkins, will provide an overview of the many facets of security, safety, and emergency planning that every organization should have in place—no matter how large or small.

Whether it’s your place of worship, school, or groups going on mission work, this seminar will introduce you to critical basic concepts and planning.

When: Tuesday, May 20, 8:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m.
Cost: $55 per person. Includes same-day admission to the Creation Museum; $40 per person for multiple registrants from the same organization.

To register, call (800) 778-3390.
