Employee Threat Assessment Team (ETAT) Change

Dave Fuecker is no longer the Chair of ETAT. OHR is working with senior leaders to determine the best ETAT structure for the University and will keep you informed. In the meantime, if you have an immediate need, please contact UMPD. If it is not an immediate need, contact Senior Consultant Laura Larson (lars2765@umn.edu). She will work with you and leverage University resources and partners (including Dave) to determine appropriate next steps to manage the situation.
