THE SHEEPDOG SOCIETY – FOUNDER
Michael has a specific interest in safeguarding America’s young children and adults from school-based violence and terrorism. He has taken personal initiative to provide funding toward the awareness and training of local law enforcement, state and federal agencies, and teacher organizations on what he perceives as inadequate school facility safety (ranging from pre-kindergarten through postgraduate). The Sheepdog Society, which received its 501(3)c non-profit status in 2010, was created to spread news and information about the threat of Islamic militants and domestic terrorists hitting our country’s schools.
