๐จ WHAT YOU DONโT KNOW AFTER A SELF-DEFENSE INCIDENT CAN COST YOU EVERYTHING ๐จ
Most gun owners spend time learning how to shoot.
Very few spend time learning what happens before, during, and after a self-defense encounter.
A single decision made in seconds can be scrutinized by law enforcement, prosecutors, attorneys, and civil courts for monthsโor even years.
Join us for this eye-opening seminar covering:
โ
Self-defense laws and legal doctrines
โ
What to expect during a criminal investigation
โ
Civil liability concerns after a defensive shooting
โ
Understanding your rights and responsibilities as a gun owner
โ
State-to-state differences in firearm laws
โ
The legal, physical, and emotional aftermath of a self-defense incident
Whether you carry concealed every day or simply keep a firearm for home protection, this is information every responsible gun owner should know.

What an incredible turnout!
This weekendโs USCCA Protect Your House of Worship Seminar brought together members of our community, church leaders, safety teams, security professionals, and concerned citizens who are committed to protecting those they serve.
We had a packed classroom filled with great discussion, practical knowledge, and real-world considerations for enhancing safety and security within houses of worship. The level of engagement, questions, and participation from everyone in attendance was outstanding.
A huge thank you to everyone who invested their time to learn, prepare, and take proactive steps toward protecting their congregation and community. Preparedness starts long before an emergency occurs, and this group demonstrated exactly what that commitment looks like.
Thank you to USCCA for providing valuable educational resources and to all those who continue to support training and responsible preparedness throughout the Rogue Valley.
