ABILENE – A reminder as we head into spring, the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) continues to offer free safety training for a variety of groups.

These courses include Texas State University’s Civilian Response to Active Shooter Event (CRASE) and Stop the Bleed courses. Both are available for various-sized groups from businesses, churches, schools, and other organizations throughout the Texas Big Country.  Each training provides critical strategies, guidance, and planning on how to survive an active shooter situation.

To learn more about the courses being offered, and how to register, contact DPS Safety Education, Sergeant Marc Couch, at (325) 669-4149 or email at marc.couch@dps.texas.gov
