About Us

What We Do

The Vigilance Group is a personal security & safety consulting company that teaches people how to live safely in a dangerous world. Our Workshops and Interactive Seminars are designed for those businesses and their associates, who have no experience in how to recognize and/or respond to dangerous situations. This Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business shares our years of military and law enforcement experiences to empower each and every participant by teaching the skill set of awareness, avoidance and action as the keys to staying safe.

Our Mission

The mission of The Vigilance Group is to inform, educate and train groups and individuals in all aspects of safety awareness techniques, personal self-defense and active shooter response tactics. Our goal is to empower the 92% of Americans who have never served in the military, law enforcement, trained in any kind of combative, or have never owned a firearm.
