About Us

Patrick Callahan Jr. started Proactive Special Security Services, Inc. to provide a new approach to security. Most security companies react to problems after they arise. Many firms carry the same equipment that police departments use when responding to crimes, including firearms, handcuffs, and mace. As a former police officer, Mr. Callahan knew there was a better way. He founded his security firm on the belief that a security guard's job is to proactively prevent problems. This proactive approach achieves better results while saving money and reducing risks. When the need arises, our highly trained officers can handle any situation, but our goal is always to prevent problems from occurring.
