[QUOTE="osy79, post: 2020950, member: 19573"] The Emergency Action Plan consists of established training programs that already exist. The idea is to now incorporate civilians into the training that would be relevant as first responders to an active shooter. Think about how insignificant the budget is in Harrold Texas, where they have implemented teachers to carry firearms in school: [url]http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/17/harrold-texas-school-guns_n_2316729.html[/url] What would it cost OKC to allow teachers to get qualified for firearms carry in schools with this model? The idea of a Civilian Guard is (again) training for civilians that already exists for LEO's. You're looking at an actual cost of less than $1k per volunteer for 2+ days of training (compared with the costs of have SRO's on site at schools which they have now & cost over $50k annually). The model for this is something that could (should) see federal funding, but not necessary, especially when you consider all the retired officers / security who already have the background & training (and are used by some schools currently).
