In 2023, Florida passed statute 768.0706 into law providing multifamily property owners and management companies with a presumption against liability if specific crime prevention measures are implemented.
In addition to specific measures defined by statute, the law requires that “the owner or principal operator of a multifamily residential property provides proper crime deterrence and safety training to its current employees.”
To assist multifamily property owners in complying with this requirement, The S2 Institute launched HB837training.com in partnership with its sister company, Critical Intervention Services.
