ALICE Acronym

To make it easy to remember in a stressful situation, ALICE is broken up into five strategies: Alert; Lockdown; Inform; Counter and Evacuate.

• The purpose of ALERT is to notify as many people as possible within the danger zone that a potentially life threatening risk exists.

• The purpose of LOCKDOWN is to secure in place, and prepare to EVACUATE or COUNTER, if needed.

• The purpose of INFORM is to continue to communicate the intruder’s location in real time.

• The purpose of COUNTER is to interrupt the intruder and make it difficult or impossible to aim. This is a strategy of last resort.

• The purpose of EVACUATE is to remove yourself from the danger zone when it is safe to do so.
