A Labor of Love for Frank Storch

A little more than a year ago Frank Storch, a safety expert from Baltimore, published a safety guide that has made an impact on schools all around the country. Storch’s 44-page booklet, called “Keep Your School Safe” gives advice and easy to follow instructions on how to upgrade the level of security in schools and other public facilities.

In Frank Storch’s own words “We have to protect the community,” it is easy to see why he worked hard to publish and distribute this guidebook, which was a labor of love. The booklet is available on-line and can be downloaded here: http://www.gowanuslounge.com/idt-energy-social-responsibility/ 

Frank Storch Making Baltimore a Safer Place to Live

The efforts of Frank Storch to make the City of Baltimore the safest possible place to live have been ongoing, beginning back in the 1980s.

At that time Frank Storch co-founded with Barry Rosenbluth the Northwest Citizens Patrol. This new organization was formed as a response to a wave of crime in the city that was taking place then; several isolated occurrences of hold-ups and larcenies.

Ever since then the NWCP has had much success, so much so that other communities modeled their own security organizations after it. At the time of the founding Frank Storch said,

“The community owes a great debt of gratitude to all the Rosenbluth brothers, Avi, Ronnie, and Marc. Upon recognizing the severity of the problem, they immediately organized a night patrol.”

Northwest Citizens Patrol Joins Forces with Project Lifesaver

Baltimore-based Northwest Citizens Patrol recently announced that it will be joining forces with Project Lifesaver. NWCP, founded by Frank Storch in 1981, is an organization that works alongside the local police to ensure the safety of Baltimore residents and visitors.

Now, it will be combining its efforts with Project Lifesaver International to provide rapid response for lost or confused adults and children with Alzheimer’s, autism, Down syndrome, dementia and other cognitive conditions. Project Lifesaver is an organization that supports law enforcement, public safety organizations and community groups throughout the U.S. and beyond, as well as provides equipment, training and certification for those who seek to help in their mission. More than 1,150 agencies in the U.S., Canada and Australia are currently participating in Project Lifesaver.
