Serving God, Saving Lives—Let's Prepare Together.
Bridging The Gap Safety & Security Consulting Services (BTG) equips schools, churches, and businesses with the lifesaving skills and confidence to respond in an emergency.
From CPR and First Aid certification to Active Violence Response (AVIRT) and custom safety consulting, our mission is simple—to bridge the gap between awareness and action.
We bring mobile, on-site training across Southern California—making it easy for your staff, volunteers, or members to get certified without ever leaving your facility.
Because when seconds count, preparation matters.
Founded by Lauren Albury , a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, former Deputy Sheriff, and School Resource Officer, Bridging The Gap Safety & Security Consulting Services was created to make lifesaving training accessible, practical, and faith-driven.
With firsthand experience in law enforcement and school safety, Lauren has seen the importance of early intervention, situational awareness, and preparedness—both in the classroom and in the community. Her background gives her a unique perspective on how prevention, training, and teamwork can save lives.
After years of working in public safety, education, and ministry, she recognized the need to bridge the gap between awareness and action. Today, BTG partners with school districts, churches, businesses, and community organizations to cultivate safer environments through hands-on training and customized safety consulting.
To empower individuals and organizations to respond confidently and effectively in moments that matter most—through education, preparation, and faith-based integrity.
"Preparedness isn't fear—it's stewardship."
