Preventing Targeted Violence Through Community Partnership


ROCTAC is focused on keeping Monroe County safe through community-based intervention approaches for:

  • Threats, or threatening behavior by an individual,
  • Grievance-fueled violence, and
  • Online radicalization.

 

ROCTAC is an active partnership of corporations, schools and colleges, social service agencies, mental health professionals, and local and federal law enforcement forged to prevent targeted violence in Monroe County.

Our ability to prevent acts of targeted violence heavily relies on people like you, the eyes and ears of our community, to help identify potential threats. ROCTAC provides crucial information and helpful resources on how to report a suspected or openly voiced act of targeted violence.
