Greetings Faith Leaders of the Greater Southern California Area,
You, or a representative from your organization, is cordially invited to attend our
inaugural Faith Communities Security Summit on Tuesday March 3rd at Biola University. This event is hosted by the Los Angeles Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the LA
Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Joint
Regional Intelligence Center (JRIC), the Orange County Intelligence Assessment
Center (OCIAC), the LA Emergency Preparedness Foundation, as well as other
sponsors.
We are living with challenging and unchartered realities, as we grapple with the rise of
targeted violence against faith-based communities. Please join us for an immersing
day of sharing information, examining hate doctrine and the emerging face of racially
motivated extremist threats, as well as discussing public and private resources
available to keep your organizations safe. We will also have a DHS-facilitated session
to educate and inform on how best to "harden" your structure(s) and campus(es).
The desire and intent of federal law enforcement and its partners is to pro-actively
address this evolving threat by building trust with faith organizations and providing you
with a wide array of tools to keep your communities safe.
This letter serves as a "save the date." Further details will be provided in an invitation
that will be sent to you in the coming weeks. So please mark your calendars for
March 3rd - we look forward to hosting and engaging all of you on this very important
topic!
Respectfully,
Stephen S. Woolery
Special Agent in Charge
Intelligence Division
