abstract="Over the past ten years, there have been significant changes in laws addressing communicated threats. Recently, law enforcement has developed strategies for responding to the increased number of threat assessment cases. This paper explores a model in which the investigator forms a partnership with a mental health professional in order to optimize resources for threat assessment investigations. The model describes the assessment of violence risk and management strategies through law enforcement and judicial interventions. The differences between employment reviews, workplace investigations conducted by private security and human resource professionals, and assessments in clinical mental health settings are also discussed.<p />",
