2022 NFOA Annual Members Meeting

We invite all members of NFOA to attend our 2022 Annual Members Meeting. We are excited to be hosting Ed Monk, of Last Resort Firearms Training and renowned expert on Active Shooter Response.

The US has been failing at Active Shooter response for over 30 years. Because of these failures, we continue to see high victim counts in most attacks. This fast-paced, information-packed presentation includes both a detailed study of the Active Shooter threat and recommendations for how we can reduce victims in future attacks. These recommendations are for individuals and organizations and are based on historical data, math, and logic. It will cover who the attacker is, weapons he uses, usual attack start locations, and the importance of math & time in planning a response.

After the seminar, we will be hosting lunch and conducting our annual members' meeting upstairs where we will present the state of NFOA and the goals and objectives for the 2023 legislative session.
