Mosodos Meet with Experts to Discuss Security

CROWN HEIGHTS [CHI] — Thursday, January 29th roshei mosdos of NCFJE, Beis Rivka, Lubavitcher Yeshiva, Colel Chabad and the Shluchim Office met with consultants from T&M Protection Resources.

The meeting was the first in a initiative to maximize security for shluchim and mosdos in the US and abroad.

“We owe it to everyone who relies on our mosdos to be as responsible as we can with security,” said Shea Hecht of NCFJE.

While the specific security measures explored are not being made public, intelligence and crisis management proceedures were considered to be a priority.

T&M Protection Resources is one of the largest providers of protective, technical, investigative, intelligence services in the industry. Their staff includes former members of the NYPD, CIA and Mossad, and they protect a number of high-profile institutions such as Yankee Stadium, Yad VaShem, the Jerusalem Mall and the Central Bus Stations of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

    There is a grant available for Target Hardening…in other words, reducing the risk of a successful terrorist attack on institutions considered to be the most vulnerable.

    In the past we have been successful in obtaining this Dept. of Homeland Security grant for Crown Heights. If you are concerned about the security of your institution & the safety of its occupants, call us on 347 657 1755. We will not undertake more applications than we can handle as we individualize every one, so please call soon. The due date is February 20th (New York.)

  • worried parent

    unfortunatly there are other agendas and some mosdos are intentionally not informed. All at the chas v’sholom expense of the children.

  • common sense

    One no cost way would be when helping the Israel army to NOT do it “in front of cameras” that throw it in the faces of every crazy Jew hater in the world.

  • parent

    its about time. We do hope something comes out of this meeting, and quick! We , as parents, demand a VISUAL police officer, standing outside of every entrance, of all Mosdos in Crown Heights, during school hours.This is the only way that “strangers” will think twice.

  • shame on you

    Are these t5he only Mosdos In CH!!!
    I can’t belive that even with the security of our children, they manage to paly politics!!1

    I’m sure that this has something to do with getting $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

    BH. Check mezuzos, help the poorer to have mezuzos checked, should be knowlegable sheluchim for this task who are able to check the mezuzos on the spot, and replace them right away, with utmost urgency. Also to check if the mezuzos are properly fixed, and are placed wherever needed according to din, specially in publick places, where people may depend on others to do the job, such as schools, shools, wedding halls, not only in Crown Heights, but wherever possible world wide in urgency, and priority.

  • nechama

    At least ULY got their act together and tried to do something about their students security. Do you really think anyone from the other schools even tried to contact anyone about the security situation? Maybe if they showed concern, and took the initiative, they would be included.

    Does the CHJCC exist anymore? WIth Rubashkin out, it does not seem that Lang is spending time over there and Sperlin has yet to plot or engage his plan to take over again. Has Sperlin talked to the Mayor so he can control the security efforts?
