This is the first episode in a two-part series on securing
and preparing faith-based organizations. Guests for this series include Rob Allen, the director of community security for the Jewish Community Relations Council for Minnesota and the Dakotas, and Shannon Paulson, the assistant commanding officer for the Los Angeles Police Department’s Counter-Terrorism
and Special Operations Bureau. In this episode, we discuss the types of faith-based attacks, the rise in faith-based attacks in recent years, and what law enforcement look for in determining faith-based attacks.
