Comprehensive crime gun investigative methods and tools work very well and show rapid results in smaller jurisdictions.  Prosecution of armed felons, drug dealers and gang members in a systematic way with mandatory prison time is also part of the equation.  Communication with the community is also vital and showing results can increase participation of reluctant witnesses.

The webinar participant will learn strategies to identify and remove their most violent offenders.  Concentrated efforts in smaller jurisdictions can make a measurable difference in violent crime rates.  Partnerships with federal and state agencies are a great benefit to making these strategies work.  Communicating the results of your efforts to the community is vital both through meetings and the media.  Conviction statistics with prison time is much more powerful than reporting arrests.

Protective parents, investigators, & prosecutors, are sometimes confused by the fact that there are two (& sometimes three) different types of child sexual abuse examinations that may pertain to the same case for different reasons.  Even more confusing is the fact that different findings & outcomes are commonly associated with the various types & timing of sexual examinations.  During this presentation the presenters will:

• Differentiate & discuss emergent, delayed, & confirmatory sexual abuse examinations.
• Discuss the different types of medical findings most often associated with each type of examination.
• Discuss why a sexual abuse examination of any type might be normal despite clear & firm victim’s disclosures of abuse.
• Discuss the therapeutic effects of “normal” sexual abuse examinations.
• Differentiate medical history taking interviews of victims from forensic interviews.
• Discuss the need for on- going victim support after the examination.

Assessment processes for dogs in shelters have changed dramatically in recent years, with research findings driving a fundamental shift away from short, provocative battery-style behaviour tests to holistic, information-gathering assessment processes. This data-driven shift away from ‘poke-and-prod’ type tests has created some fantastic opportunities for animal management and sheltering professionals to improve not just their behaviour assessments, but also the level of care provided to animals, staff safety, and appropriate outcomes for the dogs themselves.

Come join Trish and Di to find out more about the research underpinning this seismic shift in procedure, and how you can move towards a more modern and holistic model for assessing dog behaviour in shelters.

You will learn:

• Summary of recent research findings relevant to animal behaviour assessments in applied environments
• Basic principles in canine behaviour and personality assessment
• How to implement a ‘data-gathering’ continuous assessment process in your facility, using fast-track and slow-track processes. We will include some tips and tricks that we’ve learned along the way, and help you improve flow and outcome.

Victim rights are a powerful tool for victims—and for law enforcement. Victims who have received their rights are stronger witnesses, more likely to share information with agents, and better able to testify. Victim rights are also an important means to protect and empower victims throughout the case. Law enforcement agents who understand victim rights can help victims to receive the voice they are entitled to and avoid rights violations that can sidetrack an investigation or prosecution. This session, taught by the Justice Department’s former expert on victim rights law, covers the rights that law enforcement officers need to know and how to accord those rights in a way that leaves victims feeling supported, protected, and heard.

The essence of child neglect cases is proving in court that a caregiver acted in a way that resulted in harm to a child.  In most cases of neglect, however, the action of the caregiver is a lack of action entirely.  This results in the prosecution being in the unenviable position of proving a negative. During this presentation the presenters will discuss:

• Reviewing the appropriate medical records of the victim & how to present them to a judge or jury.
• Reviewing normal child growth & development & contrasting the normal with the victim.
• Obtaining forensic interviews of other children in the home about their diet & those of the victim.
• Leading a medical expert through the process of tying together the dangers of neglect & the potential for life long health consequences.

In today’s environment, the way citizens view facts, define certainty, and classify information no longer adheres to traditional rules. Fundamental changes have made it easier for domestic and foreign threats to exploit and amplify vital information to sow discord, push foreign nations’ policy agendas, cause panic, and ultimately undermine confidence and public trust in the core institutions of our democracy.  As COVID-19 and civil discourse intensifies, a new, broader, and perilous disinformation environment generates distrust, deception, and violence.

Extremist groups are now pointing to ‘theories’ and works of fiction to motivate individuals to take violent action. As disinformation grows law enforcement is called upon to react to these deceits in more informed and effective ways.

There is a proliferation of disinformation and misinformation from extremist movements inciting civil unrest. Members of law enforcement are experiencing unprecedented levels of violence, some of which are being amplified and instigated through social media.

Join us for a senior-level informational webinar led by some of the nation’s authorities that focuses on case studies of recent disinformation campaigns, the subversive and anti-government groups responsible, why law enforcement needs to be concerned, and examples for how to provide a counter-narrative to mitigate the impact on your jurisdictions.

During this webinar, we will discuss:

• Militia and extremists 101 – what, where, and who are they, how impactful are they
• Outline a framework for false Information
• What is the real threat to domestic security today?
• How do you find them and what they talk about?
• Are they fake (all talk) or real (actual threat)
• How do they recruit “action,” both group and lone wolf?
• Where do they spread their thoughts and how do you access it?
• How do they use disinformation to attract supporters?
• What is disinformation and misinformation?
• Who is doing it and why?
• How do they do it and why it matters to law enforcement?
• Action point – offices need to act now to protect their channels and counter disinformation

How many of you have heard the words “well, we’ve always done it that way” as an excuse to not grow and change? As leaders, it is our responsibility to grow teams with unique points of view to gain fresh ideas and perspectives and ensure growth, change, and continued success in our organizations.  Many leaders, in our industry as well as others, tend to be a bit controlling, and since many of us have done just about every job in animal welfare, we may think we know how to do it all.  We aren’t wrong about knowing how to do it, but do we know how to do it best? This session is designed to discuss how leaders within animal welfare can approach recruitment, retention, and promotion to foster a diverse team of subject matter experts to help take their organization to the next level.

Police body-worn cameras (BWCs) have primarily been discussed from the perspective of police. As the primary users of the technology, this makes sense. But the implementation of a BWC program has ripple effects on other stakeholders, especially downstream criminal justice actors.

In this webinar, we will discuss the benefits and challenges of police BWCs faced by public defenders.

Emotional Intelligence is the combination of several social and emotional components that work together to determine how well we utilize our skills of self-perception, self-expression, the way we build and maintain relationships, solve conflict, and manage stressful challenges. It also plays an important role in how we approach decision making.

Public Safety is an area that requires the delicate balance of emotional intelligence and data collection to support decision making during times of duress and high stress. A wrong tactical move or a poor choice of communication can have an adverse impact on efforts to de-escalate.

During this webinar we will:

• Learn how to identify the five elements of Emotional Intelligence
• Recognize the four EQ-I elements whose central contribution plays an important role in our ability to step back from the tension of a conflict or crisis.

All too often, we feel like we should be able to handle everything that life throws at us, and we should be able to do it on our own, without asking anyone for help.  But all of us are equipped with a certain level of resources on our own, and when we use those up, it just makes sense that we would then need to look outside ourselves at other available resources.  This webinar will talk about the importance of trusting others when needing support, as well as looking for that need in others when it’s our turn to be that support. We’ll also talk about a variety of different types of mental health resources, how they work, and how & when to reach out to them when it’s time.

Local law enforcement agencies are increasingly relying on the use of diversion programs to reduce incarceration for misdemeanor offenders in the hopes of rehabilitating that person through treatment and social programs to reduce recidivism.

Research shows that almost 3% of the U.S. population is under some form of supervision within the correctional and public safety system. But are these programs working? What treatments are most effective? Are arrests being reduced as a result of Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion? Technology is needed to manage and track the key elements of diversion to answer these key questions and others to measure program performance, client success, and outcomes.

Law enforcement leaders are asking how disinformation campaigns will impact their community and what can Sheriffs and chief law enforcement leaders can do to thwart these messages. The sheer amount of information on the pandemic means that government and community leaders need to take specific actions to ensure that their citizens and employees receive factual and actional information.

During this session we will discuss:

• Where can you go for help when you run across a concern?
• What do you do about them?
• What can/should you do about the group?
• How do you handle a media that wants to make it into an issue?
• Examples of disinformation (from Election 2016, DAPL and others)
• Use of new technologies – deep fake videos, Adobe VoCo, others

When a low-income client presents a severely neglected animal to a veterinarian for treatment, the doctor faces a difficult conundrum: is it their duty to protect the animal from continued neglect, or is it their duty to help the person who may be struggling financially to care for their animal? In states where veterinary reporting of animal cruelty is mandatory, the stress this ethical dilemma can put on a veterinarian is significant. Throughout this webinar, the presenters will discuss the veterinarian’s role in both preserving the human-animal bond and addressing animal cruelty resulting from poverty.

 

Webinars in this Series with the ALDF include:

• The Status of Animals in Criminal Animal Cruelty Cases
• Oct 29: Understanding Wildlife Animal Cruelty 
• Jan 21, 2021:  Preserving the Bond: the Veterinarian’s Role in Pre-Empting Animal Cruelty (this webinar)

The ability of police officers to use force, and potentially take human life, is likely the most significant aspect of the profession. Police have a clear obligation to ensure force is being used appropriately, and in compliance with the criminal and constitutional law. But in the post-Floyd era, police must also recognize that force will receive unprecedented community attention, and that force discussions now go beyond legal analyses and involve meaningful community engagement.

This webinar will address:

• Fundamental concepts of objectively reasonable force
• Significant elements of community engagement
• Practical tips for engaging communities around use of force issues

In today’s environment, the way citizens view facts, define certainty, and classify information no longer adheres to traditional rules. Fundamental changes have made it easier for domestic and foreign threats to exploit and amplify vital information to sow discord, push foreign nations’ policy agendas, cause panic, and ultimately undermine confidence and public trust in the core institutions of our democracy.  As COVID-19 and civil discourse intensifies, a new, broader, and perilous disinformation environment generates distrust, deception, and violence.

During this session, we’ll hear from experts on how to not only increase “open-source” intelligence gathering but how to counter these destructive efforts. Additionally, the forum will provide advice for navigating through and exposing falsities and methodologies for countering the narrative. This includes uncovering and exposing publicly disinformation being spread by adversaries and sources touting them—this is and remains a public-facing role that is extraordinary but vital in the modern era of influence campaigns.

Unlike other implicit bias training, this module provides a different perspective. The executive state is the capacity to engage in complex problem-solving. The module bridges the gap between the research of cognitive psychologists on how the brain works and research by social psychologists on bias in policing.  It provides an opportunity to understand the normal cognitive, motivational, and socio-cultural processes that promote intergroup biases and how our brains respond instinctively or consciously and deliberately in the moment. Individuals and institutions reinforce each other’s tendencies, making discriminatory behaviors powerful and resistant to change.

A new perspective and better understanding of how humans work and its relevance to policing will allow law enforcement professionals to better protect our rights and freedoms outlined in the constitution, to maintain public order through policies and practices that are humane, disciplined and equitable.

 

Participants will learn:

• The psychological aspects of implicit bias
• The situational and environmental factors police face and their role in use of force
• Basic human rights principles on use of force
• Two factors intended to mitigate the use of force and protect human rights

Communities across the country are finally recognizing what law enforcement has argued for years: mental health response should not be a criminal justice matter. But what does successful mental health diversion actually mean? Hear from cutting-edge diversion programs from across the country explain how they’ve been able to successfully reduce the burden on law enforcement, save resources, and help those most in need.

Now that we are nearly a year into coping with the pandemic, we recognize that there are a lot of things we have been putting on hold for ‘when it’s over’. But it is time to start recognizing that ‘when it’s over’ may not happen, and it is time to change our concept of what is normal, and accept that what is happening now is normal. We will talk about what change is, what motivates change, the steps of change, and why our best efforts to change sometimes fails.  Acceptance is one form of change that may be the hardest to accomplish. Duane will be talking about the process we go through in accepting things as they are, and some of the blocks that we may put in our way.

A correctional environment can provide a wealth of intelligence to assist law enforcement agencies in criminal investigations, yet correctional intelligence is often overlooked by the law enforcement community. Correctional intelligence can proactively identify threats, prevent criminal activity, and provide the appropriate parties with actionable intelligence to assist in successful prosecution. Correctional environments offer a unique array of human intelligence. This includes, but is not limited to, face-to-face offender interaction which can provide information leading to the prevention of crimes or assist in solving unsolved crimes. Attendees will learn how information from offenders housed in a correctional facility has the potential to present a targeted approach to crime prevention on the street and identify key threats to the community. The purpose of this presentation is to share the benefits of correctional intelligence and the importance of partnerships between corrections and law enforcement agencies, while highlighting the information and resources only available in a correctional environment. Attendees will be presented with examples of how a strong partnership and the sharing of intelligence can lead to successful drug interdictions, identification of radicalized individuals, identification of individuals eluding law enforcement, location of firearms and more.

More than ever before, today’s criminal justice agencies are faced with increasing demands to address quality of life issues, such as mental health, homelessness and substance abuse, in addition to their core competencies.  Shrinking budgets and calls to defer funding to other governmental agencies requires criminal justice agencies to truly embrace a “work smarter, not harder,” strategy and implement evidence-based practices.  These efforts require data for analysis and assessing the effectiveness of strategies.  However, it’s not about collecting just any data or even increasingly more data.  It’s about collecting and using the right data.  Data that exists within external criminal justice agencies but, through partnership, can be married with criminal justice data for enhanced operational decisions.  This webinar will address strategies to develop partnerships with external entities, determine what and how data can be shared, methods to integrate the data into existing systems, and a sample of operational decisions that can be gleaned from the combined data.  In conclusion, this webinar will touch on how these efforts support a continual process of implementing evidence-based practices.

Thirteen prosecutors in the U.S. have been murdered since 1967.  During the coronavirus pandemic, public health officials have quit their jobs over concerns for their safety, and some have been assigned protective security details.  In July 2020 the son of a federal judge was murdered, and her husband injured at their home.  Access to publicly available information on public officials and private citizens, including domestic abuse victims, is a concern in our digital age.

This webinar will show how criminal justice professionals can increase their personal safety and the safety of those for whom they are responsible.  Likewise, the webinar will be useful for victim advocates, providing the means to mitigate against intimate partner stalking and violence.  Drawing upon proven best practices from the executive protection industry and other security disciplines, this training will provide tips on how public officials and others, such as domestic violence victims, can “harden” their physical security and online privacy.

In the webinar, you’ll learn:

• Risks 101 (basics of risk, and human obstacles to accurately assessing risk)
• Physical Security (Stalking, threatening, and attacking public figures and intimate partners; selecting an executive protection/personal protection team; when protectees are most at risk)
• Cyber Security and Online Privacy (Three cybersecurity basics everyone should implement right now)

Law enforcement, in general, has taken big steps in training Officers to recognize sex trafficking victims and perpetrators on the street. However, there is a profound disconnect between recognizing a sex trafficking victim on the street and recognizing a victim after they are incarcerated. This is especially true when dealing with incarcerated adults.

The corrections profession must learn to recognize sex trafficking within its walls. This crime and many others linked to it, have the potential to compromise the safety and security of our corrections facilities, the inmates within these facilities and the community our Departments are committed to protecting.

Pima County Sheriff’s Department Corrections Sergeant Barbara Mattes discusses how and why sex traffickers are using adult correction facilities to recruit victims.  She will also examine some of the reasons why it is important to implement training and procedures to prevent this crime and discusses effective ways to combat it.

During this webinar, we will discuss:

• Potential reasons or resistance for why it may be hard to recognize and prevent sex trafficking in a corrections facility
• Protecting your Department by taking steps to prevent trafficking in your facilities
• Why traffickers use jails and prisons to recruit women and girls
• Identifying victim indicators and perpetrator tactics
• Systems to recognize and prevent sex trafficking in corrections

There comes a time in every investigator’s career that cats and dogs are part of a case, whether centrally, as seen in situations of animal cruelty, or peripherally, as often seen in domestic violence calls. In many of these situations, you may need to document the animals’ condition without the assistance of a veterinarian or experienced humane law enforcement officer. Do you know what you are looking for, and what to put on the record? This webinar will take you through the basic logistics of documenting an animal’s condition- nose to tail- including physical and behavioral characteristics, how to make it part of the record so it holds up in court, and preserving your case when the evidence is alive.

This webinar will introduce participants to the principles of Relational Policing and discuss how the power of cultivating these principles build and maintains community trust.

Building a successful animal management program from the ground up is challenging at the best of times but throw in the mix a low socio-economic area, poor trust in AMOs, limited resources, and a long history of high enforcement. Understanding the needs of a community, difficulties in an area as well as taking a multi-agency approach to a pilot animal management program has lead to amazing success for a regional Local Government in Australia. Gaining the trust of the community became the key to creating a successful working relationship.

Come join Tina and Ann-Marie to find out about how you could build a holistic approach to animal management programs in low socio-areas with great results.

 

What you’ll learn:

• Summary of current animal management pilot program in a regional Australian town.
• Challenges faced and how they were overcome within the program.
• Why a multi-agency approach to an animal management program leads to successful outcomes for everyone involved

When the coronavirus pandemic was in its infancy, NCCHC and MCSA both recognized the tremendous challenge it would pose for correctional institutions. We knew that sheriffs needed access to real-time information as well as experts in correctional health care in order to keep their

facilities safe. Working quickly, our organizations came together to offer free, weekly webinars focused on different concerns that could arise from the spread of coronavirus. These webinars included officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nationally recognized medical experts, leading scholars in our field, and several sheriffs with experience in both patrol and correctional practices. These webinars ran for 10 weeks during the height of the pandemic, with nearly 5,000 live participants. What came out of these webinars are our “lessons learned”.

 

During this webinar, we will:

• Identify ways to improve quality in health services during pandemics
• Discuss strategies for reducing liability and risk
• Share how data during COVID-19 was used to assist correctional health care field
• Describe how nationally recognized standards can help mitigate your infectious disease risk

This webinar will begin a framework into WHO exactly is applying for this position and what are they bringing with them. As researched by the original theorists, there is a path to successful intercultural relationships.  What is Law Enforcement currently doing to equip its current and future police officers with the knowledge and path needed to positively interact with those different than them? Remember, the words “Culture and Diversity” are more than skin tones!

We all want to be fair in our roles. Fairness may even be a direct mandate within our agency’s mission statement. But how do we know if we’re successful in that regard? Fairness has both objective and subjective parts so it is not enough to *be* fair; we must be *seen* as fair. And the only way to assess for that is to ask the individuals. This session will explore the definition and research basis for fairness, as well as practical tools (and safeguards) to invite feedback from system users. We’ll also consider how real-time feedback tools can equip savvy leaders with a means to road-test new practices before making longer-term and more costly investments.

Motivational Conversation is the process of using questions to move people in a well-intended direction.  The questions are used to create conversations which lead to relationship building, or rapport.  As law enforcement officers, we engage community members on a daily basis where we are interacting, persuading, and engaging on a variety of levels.  Motivational Conversation helps the law enforcement professional make these daily contacts much more productive and effective.

As police investigators, there are similar aspects to conducting an interrogative interview and the core tenets of Motivational Conversation.  Both are based on rapport building, engaging with the person being interviewed, and guiding people along a well-intended path (truth seeking).  The ability to successfully use Motivational Conversation on a daily basis will be the foundation for conducting successful interrogative interviews.  Learn how to use Motivational Conversation to build upon your interrogative interviewing skills.

Human trafficking is a complex problem that often crosses city, state and national borders. However, it is a local police officer or sheriff’s deputy who is typically the first government official that victims of sex and labor trafficking encounter. How effectively those local law enforcement officials handle that first encounter with a trafficking victim can determine whether the victim is ultimately rescued and assisted and whether their traffickers are held accountable. The Police Executive Research Forum recently published a report that examines how local police – working in partnership with prosecutors, service agencies and other non-governmental organizations – can address human trafficking in their communities. The report focuses on the key areas of training, interagency collaboration, victim services and technology. This webinar will review PERF’s findings and highlight some of the innovative approaches that some jurisdictions are adopting.

Attendees of this webinar will learn about the following:

• The nature and extent of the human trafficking problem and local law enforcement’s role in combating it.
• Innovative collaborations among police, prosecutors and non-governmental organizations.
• Best practices in human trafficking training and technology use.
• 10 concrete actions jurisdictions can take to effectively combat human trafficking.

The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) study is one of the world’s most massive research projects on childhood abuse and neglect.  A collaboration between the Center for Disease Control and Kaiser Permanente, this study was aimed at determining how childhood trauma affected the health and well-being of the participants later in life. The ACEs test, which comprises ten questions, is specifically geared toward children under the age of 18.  Research findings indicate that the higher the score, the more likely the participant will experience developmental delays, participate in health risk behaviors, contract diseases, and experience an early death.  In this webinar, we will discuss how the ACEs concept was formed, what’s on the test, levels of stress, analysis of the research, and what we can do to recognize it, and ultimately put an end to it.

What are your agency connections online? Is your agency connecting at all? Is your agency connecting but only a little bit, or with just a few surrounding jurisdictions?  Don’t Do Data Sharing Alone! And Don’t Do Half Way Sharing!

Many law enforcement and criminal justice agencies have found ways to advance beyond the stubborn cultural resistance to sharing data, and they work!  What’s more, they can work for others just as well.  Does YOUR agency share ALL of your legally sharable data with other law enforcement and criminal justice agencies? Or are you encountering roadblocks? This webinar involves refreshing, powerfully positive practices involving data and sharing, such as:

• • Relating
  • Trusting
  • Disclosing
  • Processing
  • Integrating
  • (and let’s not forget, Securing!)

The Results? Quality professional relationships, solved crimes, officer/deputy safety, crime prevention, increased connections, and rising hope as all involved realize a new, effective DATA DESTINY!

Policing is changing, and that means the way we talk about policing must change as well. The trust and transparency that public information officers and departments have built over the last several years is being tested, and new schools of thought are emerging. What must you have to communicate effectively in the era following the death of George Floyd? Why should you care so much about the details when it comes to talking about policy, practices, and how that fits into your community? We’ll revisit the necessity of social media and putting the right people in place to handle that, the practices that should be enhanced going forward, and the topics and ideals that should be highlighted so that your agency stands strong with your community as we moved forward in this next phase of information-sharing and engagement.

Researchers and practitioners alike are still trying to understand the impacts of COVID-19 on the criminal justice system, even though we continue to be in the midst of the pandemic. Much of the research on COVID-19 and policing has focused on either the impact on calls for service or the perspectives of police executives. This study assesses the wide range of impacts of COVID-19 on line-level officers and frontline supervisors. In this webinar, we will discuss a variety of impacts—like changes to service provision, community needs, and administrative accommodations—and what these changes might mean for policing moving forward.

Police often are the first (and sometimes the only) point of government contact for persons experiencing homelessness (PEH). Although it has been common for police to rely on traditional law enforcement powers in dealing with homelessness, many agencies have moved away from arrest-focused methods in favor of approaches that are designed to foster positive relationships with PEH, assess individual needs of each person or area, and guide homeless or unsheltered individuals to the services they require.  This webinar reviews the background of homelessness and law enforcement in the United States, the challenges in studying the topic, and some high-priority needs to advance research and understanding.  These needs cut across four main topic areas: promising law enforcement practices; partnerships and collaboration with service providers and the community; data collection, analysis, and evaluation; and basic research and public education.  Finding ways to address these needs is especially important given public discussions regarding the desired scope of law enforcement and potential budget shortfalls within communities.

This presentation will review extensive literature regarding natural disasters and the increase in family violence often reported in the wake of these events. We will discuss specific disasters around the globe and explore similarities in household characteristics between what is reported after these events and what has been reported during the Covid-19 pandemic. Participants will learn how increased stress experienced during and after these events significantly increases risk of abuse victimization for adults, children, and pets who reside in the homes impacted. With increasing reports of family violence extending a year or more after the event and declining mental health reported for up to three years after disaster, professionals must prepare for long-term family violence victim assistance needs following the current pandemic. The importance of protecting pets to better protect people, during disaster and at all other times as well, will also be highlighted.

There are many times that organizations have someone high profile, at-risk, or a visiting dignitary that causes a security concern for the entity. Have you wondered whether you should raise the security level or find yourself saying “it will probably be ok.” What would it do the morale of your organization, the reputation, if only one event occurred that maybe could have been prevented or mitigated but you did nothing? In this webinar, we will discuss the evaluation of risk, planning and applying various levels of security to raise the actual level of preparedness to be safer rather than only feel safer.

We face those in trauma every day–victims, witnesses, and even our own co-workers. When we respond well to trauma, we build trust and make it more likely that those in need get help. Unfortunately, it’s not always easy to respond well because of the way that trauma affects the brain, both of the person in trauma and those who are interacting with him or her. In this presentation, Katharine Manning, author of The Empathetic Workplace and an attorney with more than 25 years’ experience with issues of trauma and victimization, discusses how trauma affects us and the five steps to an appropriate and supportive response to those in trauma: listen, acknowledge, share, empower, and return.

Depression affects millions of people worldwide, and is the leading cause of disability, but it’s still a mystery to many, and something that few want to admit they’re experiencing. This webinar will talk about some of the myths and commonly misunderstood beliefs about depression, as well as signs to watch for in yourself and others. We’ll also discuss prevention, so that you can stay in a resilient position to keep yourself in a positive state of well-being.  But depression isn’t necessarily something we can just “decide” not to experience, and it’s not always something we can prevent on our own, so we’ll also discuss the many treatment options available for depression; what the options are, how they work, how different people are affected, and what to hope for after treatment.

Our experience with the pandemic taught us that the short-term ‘self-care’ coping skills were effective for the first few months, but were not particularly effective in sustaining all of our coping needs for the longer term. It became clear that our positive state of mind was our best tool for surviving day after day, but finding coping mechanism to support a positive frame of mind weren’t being discussed or taught. This webinar will present the coping mechanisms to sustain a positive mind-frame, and help us to create the life style necessary to live and deal with the ‘new normal’ in which we are living.

From dogs and cats to wildlife and livestock, law enforcement personnel often encounter animals on a weekly, if not daily basis. The challenges of carrying out law enforcement duties when there is an animal component can be challenging, stressful and dangerous. Understanding things like animal behavior and body language, as well as various control techniques can make these instances safer and allow law enforcement to carry out the task at hand. Whether the assigned call for duty is directly related to the animal or the animal is peripheral, understanding some basic animal handling techniques and animal behavior can be the difference between closing out a call and moving on to the next or ending up in the emergency room.

Police officers hate training and the profession lacks a training culture. Whether it is completing state mandated re-certification training or going to a training program administered by an outside “expert” consultant, officers tend to view many training programs as a waste of time and money. As policing sits at a crossroads whereby we are reimaging the role of law enforcement in society, it is necessary for police managers to re-think how to get their officers onboard with training. This webinar will discuss the barriers and facilitators to officer training motivation and receptivity. We will discuss supervisor behaviors that are foundational to cultivating receptivity to training, and individual officer characteristics that shape their orientations toward and experiences with training programs. The webinar will focus on what research tells us about the managerial techniques and recruitment/hiring practices that may provide the best chance of improving officers’ motivation to train.

The first lecture in this series focuses on severe violence perpetrated by individual children and youth. The series begins with a historical overview of select case studies of violence committed by youth (defined as individuals younger than 18 years old) in the United States from Colonial times to the present. Next, the contemporary status of youth violence in the United States will be covered, including updates from the latest national surveys completed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, and others. With historical examples and current trends providing context, childhood psychopathy will be discussed through an exploration of topics including:

• The spectrum of childhood behavioral and neurodevelopmental disorders and how/why childhood psychopathy is considered a unique entity from these disorders.
• Characteristics of childhood psychopathy, and how/why childhood psychopathy may be conceptualized as a malignant form of conduct disorder.
• Environmental factors (e.g. family characteristics, trauma history, media exposure/participation, radicalization) that may impact the expression of psychopathic traits in youth.

These concepts will be reinforced by the identification of psychopathic traits manifested in case examples of murder, school shootings, and sexual violence perpetrated by youth. References and resource materials will be provided in addition to lecture content.

After attending this presentation, attendees will be able to:

• Appreciate current statistics and trends in violence crime as perpetrated by youth in the United States.
• Understand the spectrum of childhood behavioral and neurodevelopmental disorders and place childhood psychopathy in its proper context within that spectrum.
• Evaluate cases of violence perpetrated by youth for the presence of psychopathic traits.

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) promise many benefits, but questions remain about how law enforcement officers will interact with them. Officers likely will encounter new challenges related to technology, procedures, and constitutional authorities.  However, there are considerable misconceptions regarding the current state of AV technology and pace of adoption.  While many believe we are at the cusp of widespread AV use, the reality which law enforcement will be facing is different.  In the near-term future, law enforcement will deal with many of the same traffic-related challenges with AVs and with non-AVs, though with some added difficulty in the limited number of AV cases.  This webinar will provide a basic walkthrough of what AVs are, the broad state of the field, and some of the high-priority needs of law enforcement in the short- and long-term.  Though short-term issues are important, numerous experts in AV agreed law enforcement should begin proactive preparations to address longer-term challenges before being forced into reactive changes. Key areas of interest for law enforcement are: designing a means of communicating with AVs that also maintains cybersecurity; improving stakeholder communication and collaboration; and developing standard procedures, guidelines, and training needs for law enforcement interacting with AVs.
