DALLAS, March 24, 2021 — The National Organization of Church Security & Safety Management (NOCSSM) announced its 16th Annual National Church Security Conference will be held at Watermark Community Church in Dallas, Texas on Aug. 6-7, 2021.
“Every church has gone to a Church Security Seminar. We present more of a technical conference.” said Chuck Chadwick, NOCSSM president. “The NOCSSM annual conference is not a conference to recant old cases, try to convince the church to take up arms or to teach the newest choke hold. Each year we have new speakers and new subject matter to add to our attendee’s security skill set.”
