Sarah Peck, director of United on Guns answers questions on what city and county managers must do to lead through tragedy.

Key takeaways:

1. Schedule a tabletop exercise annually, inviting the highest elected official, the police chief or sheriff, the local FBI, a Public Information Officer, and other key staff.
2. Security solutions should be analyzed thoroughly and emotion must be removed from purchasing decisions.
3. Don’t do overly realistic drills, especially for young children.
4. Despite demoralizing frustration, there are steps local government leaders can and must take now to plan, respond, and recover.
