It seems like every day we turn on the TV, there is news about another armed intruder tragedy occurring at a church, synagogue, mosque, chapel, or temple. Whether you are a pastor, board member, security guard, member or secretary, you want to protect your church family.
It may seem like this threat is out of your control, but there is something we can do together … reduce the notification time and response time of law enforcement arriving at the scene of these tragedies.
The Guard911® family of services has something no other security app has – an established network of 65,000+ federal, state, and local law enforcement officers nationwide who have joined the free law enforcement-exclusive Hero911® network. Every time a Guard911® panic button is used, all officers who maintain the Hero911® app and are in close proximity to the protected property are notified immediately. This means quicker notification time that will allow for quicker response time in order to save lives and treat the injured.
We at Guard911® are passionate about saving innocent lives. Our Guard911® app can be deployed in places of worship across the country. Shouldn’t it be in yours?
Why Guard911 Active Shooter App?
When waiting on law enforcement to respond and handle a crisis, research shows the average casualty count is 14, but when people are notified right away, casualties average 2.5.
With the touch of Guard911’s active shooter smartphone button, 911 is notified and a first responder with the Hero911®app is on the way to take control of the situation. No other emergency app has this life-saving feature.
Guard911 apps offer the ONLY federally approved, FREE app for our Hero911 network of over 65,000 federal, state, and local officers who can be at your school, business, church, daycare, or organization fast when the alarm is pushed. Since 2013, Guard911 has been proven to work every time, When Seconds Save Lives®.
For staff to have immediate access to other adults during a crisis or situation is very important, and Guard911 offers that. It is valuable for our peace of mind, but more importantly, we understand the threat of school shootings is real, and we’ve witnessed in other emergencies how critical immediate action can be.

Our school signed up for SchoolGuard and we recently had the opportunity to use it during an Active Shooter Drill conducted by the Maui Police Department. We used the Principal Push to communicate with each other as it was impossible to get to landline phones or alarm systems during the drill. We were grateful for the sense of connectedness SchoolGuard gave to us as we sent messages to alert the location of the shooter. This is a wonderful tool for school safety. Thank you for your work in making our schools safer!

How It Works
Guard911® active shooter alert and mobile panic button technology is simple and powerful.
- Approved staff download the Guard911 app to their smartphones.
- In the event of workplace violence, an armed intruder, or active shooter, approved staff members press the panic button on the screen.
- An alert is immediately sent to all Hero911 participating federal, state, and local law enforcement officers, on and off duty, who are in close proximity to the property.
- The app also simultaneously speed dials 911 and connects the staff member to emergency services.
- All other staff on the property with the app are immediately alerted of the emergency, and a map of the location of the initial alert is displayed on their mobile phones. The map provides situational awareness to your staff, which allows them to react accordingly.
Place a panic button in the hands of your staff and empower them to stop workplace violence with Guard911 – When Seconds Save Lives.
