    At Paratus Group, our mission is simple: to equip everyday people with the mindset, skills, and tools to prevent threats before they happen—and respond with confidence when it counts.

WITH OUR SITUATIONAL AWARENESS PROGRAMs

When danger strikes, you are the First Responder.
Are you prepared to act during the critical Response Window—those seconds or minutes when lives hang in the balance? Whether it's a car crash, a house fire, someone following you, or being caught in a violent crowd—situational awareness can mean the difference between survival and tragedy.

Retired USAF Colonel Brian "Patton" Searcy saw a dangerous gap in how we prepare civilians for the real-world threats we now face daily. In response, he founded The Paratus Group, and created the 3P Program (Prepare, Prevent, Protect)—a revolutionary training system that empowers individuals with the mindset and skillset needed to take back responsibility for their safety.

Unlike traditional training that leaves you passive and unprepared, Paratus delivers practical, proven methods to develop true situational awareness. At its core: the 10 Critical Skills every person must master to anticipate threats, make rapid decisions, and act with confidence.

This isn’t theory. This is survival.
Join The Paratus Group. Learn the skills. Take back control. Be ready when it matters most.

“Prepare for the real world”

With a copy of Brian Searcy’s Actionable Safety Journal.

#SituationalAwareness can help you prevent something bad from happening, teach you how to remove yourself and others from that situation, and prepare you to respond in such events.

Many problems we face in life happen because we either act without thinking or think without acting. Learning and developing situational awareness enables you to take responsibility for your own safety and for that of your community.

“…increased my situational awareness to a much higher degree..”

“I have increased my situational awareness to a much higher degree. I am now thinking of strategies, resources, and potential threats when entering a new environment. I have implemented the checklist in my everyday life as well as incorporated tactical breathing in stressful situations such as driving. I have become less naive in my life and more guarded when it comes to people which is positive for me.”

— A. BECKMAN
