In prosecuting animal cruelty offenses, success largely depends on the prosecutor’s witnesses testifying confidently and competently. (After all, our victims cannot take the stand for themselves!) Unfortunately, testifying in trial is not a natural-born skill, and individuals involved in the animal welfare community—animal service, veterinarians, and animal shelter staff—do not have nearly enough opportunities to practice it.

In this webinar, Oregon Animal Cruelty Deputy District Attorney Jake Kamins will give you the tips you need to present your testimony effectively and efficiently, always keeping in mind his “golden rule” (TELL THE TRUTH!) You will learn how to prepare for the big day, what questions to ask in advance, and how to keep yourself calm and composed even under the harshest cross-examination.

The need for Community Building has become increasingly complex.  Motivational Conversation is a method where building relationships through the use of well-placed questions will lead to better relationships with the public.

The necessity for good relationships between the criminal justice system and the public is vitally important.  We can build good relationships with communities by understanding how those relationships are influenced by several different perspectives.  There are three perspectives which we need to understand as criminal justice professionals to understand, engage, and construct positive relationships with the public.  The perspectives are:

• Societal Worldview:  A successful society must have productive interaction between various parts of government, societal groups, religions, and the economy.  Each part of society functions together to contribute to the success of the whole.
• Conflict Mindset:  This occurs with groups or individuals.  There is an emphasis placed on the source of differences among individuals or groups.  Conflict can be based on politics, availability of resources/opportunity, group affiliation, etc.  Some people can find comfort in perpetuating these differences.
• Personal Lens:  We have a set of personal experiences and value judgments which shape our personal one-on-one interactions.  We find comfort in these value judgments.

By understanding the influences of these three perspectives and utilizing Motivational Conversation strategies, genuine community building can take place.  It takes commitment, time,  and effort, but the dividends gained can be truly significant.

Have you ever struggled to decide whether it is more important to support your people or your agency? On the one hand, you want to do the right thing to take care of those on the frontlines, but you’ve also got to make sure that the work gets done. Most supervisors, managers, and executives have encountered this dilemma. In fact, it’s a commonly mentioned concern in management training classes. In this webinar, Dr. Ed Sherman will discuss the balance between productivity and ensuring that employees have the assistance and resources that are necessary to function effectively. While sometimes considered as being in opposition to one another, these two needs can and should exist in a parallel, complementary manner to produce the best possible outcomes, as will become evident during this training.

Are you interested in a career in animal welfare field services, commonly referred to as animal control? This webinar will focus on what you need to know and how to prepare for getting your first position in animal control. This includes key topics such as reading and understanding the job description, gaining experience and training prior to your first day, and preparing for the job interview. Attendees will be presented with this information and the experiences of leading professionals of the field with how they started in the field.

Foster programs are a necessity in any animal shelter or rescue but creating and maintaining one that provides consistent positive output can be a challenge.  Foster homes reduce in-shelter population, reduce stress on staff and animals, and provide much needed real-life information about adoptable animals.  The challenge is creating a foster base that will consistently help with the animals your shelter needs help with; the medically challenged and/or behaviorally challenged population.

What you will learn:

• How to break down your foster program and rebuild it for success
• The benefits of opening your foster program up to include all adoptable animals in your shelter and why that variety will help you sustain your program
• How to streamline communication with foster parents

In this webinar, we discuss the roots of resilience and how we can learn to move through adversity, not just bounce back.  The Stoic philosopher Heraclitus said, “No man steps in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and he’s not the same man.”  We investigate how we can use our adversity or pain and transform it into wisdom by adopting a growth mindset. By exploring the four pillars of resilience: physical, mental and emotional, spiritual, and social, we explore tools to aid in the integration of our experience to forge a path towards evolution and thrive.

He was tall, handsome, and raised in a religious house. As a youth, he worked in his father’s grocery store. He was a star athlete at Farmersville high school in Denton, a Texas state record holder in the hurdles. He pledged a fraternity at the University of North Texas and worked at Braniff Airlines. And if he hadn’t hitchhiked down Sunset Blvd. in the summer of 1968, he might never have met Charlie Manson. But he did. His name is Charles “Tex” Watson, and in early August 1969, he began a mission of murder called “Helter Skelter.”  We’ll uncover the path investigators forged from 2 crime scenes in what became known as the Tate-LaBianca Murders to Charlie Manson and his right-hand man, Charles “Tex” Watson, and the rest of the Manson family.

Historically, efforts to address mass incarceration left girls behind due to gender-neutral policies that failed to contemplate their needs. Events over the past year have amplified interest in addressing inequities in the legal system, however, the experiences of girls, especially girls of color, are still largely overlooked. Girls are often criminalized for their attempts to cope with trauma after experiencing violence and abuse. Understanding and addressing this nexus between trauma and criminalization is critical given the increased vulnerability girls face as a result of the pandemic.

This webinar will apply a gender lens to the policing of youth and examine:

• The impact of COVID-19 on juvenile justice system involvement
• How systemic racism, youth developmental psychology, and trauma contribute to negative police interactions for youth of color
• The ways in which social attitudes towards girls, especially girls of color, contribute to their being criminalized for their own abuse
• And effective strategies and promising practices to prevent girls from experiencing the Abuse to Prison Pipeline.

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:

Law enforcement, justice, and other public-sector entities have recently been making a move toward transitioning their applications to the cloud. However, many agencies who have successfully adopted a cloud-first approach acknowledge that the transition from brick-and-mortar operations turned out to be more complex than they initially projected. During this webinar, we will explore some of the roadblocks cloud-transitions often entail and present strategies for overcoming them.

Attendees will walk away with the following:

• An overview of the biggest hurdles agencies face when implementing cloud-based systems such as dispatch, records-management, state message switches, and criminal history
• Strategies to create alignment between agency stakeholders, users and cloud vendors
• IT management implications of cloud deployments and how planning ahead can prevent unexpected roadblocks
• Lessons-learned from agency leadership who have been successful with their transition

Decisions, decisions, decisions.  We make hundreds if not thousands of them every day.  And most of our decisions are made subconsciously, quickly and emotionally.  As a matter of fact, emotion is a big player in your daily decision making.

Have you ever made a decision while angry which you later regretted?  Being able to reign in disruptive emotions leads to better decisions.   So how do we identify and control these disruptive emotions?  With the use of Emotional Intelligence.

Emotional Intelligence (EI) is a key component of decision-making.  Research shows that those with a high level of Emotional Intelligence make better decisions, are move motivated, display a higher level of empathetic understanding and are less susceptible to an amygdala hijacking.  Stress, whether incident or self-induced impacts not only the decision-making process but the overall outcome.

Attendees will be introduced to the 5 pillars of EI and tactics to increase EI.  We will also look at several mental and thinking models to assist the criminal justice professional with their decision-making.  Having a latticework of mental or thinking models is a necessity to help us navigate the complex world we live in.

Amidst the growing trend of new training for criminal justice professionals in the area of wellness, one aspect of wellness has historically been left out: that of spiritual wellness. Officers are often called upon to deal with hurting and distressed individuals who are already in pain or in conflict. Faith and spiritual hope can help criminal justice professionals in the daily struggle as they witness these incidents. This, coupled with the COVID crisis, public demand for first responder services, declining resources, and the overall critical atmosphere has placed increasing pressure on not only the officers and justice professionals, but also on their families as well.

Spirituality is a sense of belief that there is something greater than one’s self. The practice provides an individual with a sense of peace and purpose which helps him or her overcome a sense of helplessness that many offers experience as they witness these tragedies.

During this webinar, we’ll explore the role of the criminal justice professional following the basic principles of personal and professional integrity, values, ethics, and morals.

Spiritual wellness in law enforcement, as well as other criminal justice professions, is a critical component to overall wellness. This webinar aims to assist in this process moving forward.

In the field of animal welfare, we have not always been the best at keeping track of data and metrics around the work we do; we are simply focused on getting the job done.  That is all changing, and in order to justify our budgets, apply for grants, seek additional personnel, etc. we are not being asked to provide data to support our requests.  This presentation will begin the conversation surrounding metrics we can and should be tracking in different areas of our operations, how to ensure we are getting “clean” data, and how to begin to apply it.

Risk assessment, when applied to youth who have committed physical or sexual violence, is the process of evaluating the youth for behaviors and characteristics that would impact the likelihood of violent behavior in the future.  A brief historical overview of the development of risk assessment will be covered with an exploration of the steps of basic risk assessment, risk assessment models including clinical, actuarial, and guided clinical judgment, and risk evaluation as it would apply to youth. Risk assessment and its role in the evaluation and treatment of violent youth offenders will be discussed with an emphasis on the utilization of age-and offense-appropriate tools. With this introduction, risk assessment will be discussed through the exploration of topics including:

• Neurodevelopment factors to consider when performing risk assessment and risk evaluation in youth
• Risk assessment tools specific for physical versus sexual violence in youth
• Protective factors and their importance in mitigation of future risk

These concepts will be reinforced by case examples of risk assessment utilizing tools discussed utilizing case examples of risk assessment of Incel radicalized youth, risk assessment in the context of autism spectrum disorder, and risk assessment for safety to return to school in the context of a threatened school shooting. References and resource materials will be provided in addition to lecture content.

After attending this presentation, attendees will:

• Appreciate the process of risk assessment as it applies to youth who have committed physical or sexual violence.
• Understand the types of risk assessment models,
• Be able to evaluate cases for the need for risk assessment and make initial recommendations as to the tool type for that assessment.

The Lethality Assessment Program (LAP) was designed by the Maryland Network Against Domestic Violence and based on Dr. Jaquelyn Campbell’s “Danger Assessment.”  The LAP is an 11-question checklist that is read by responding officers to victims of alleged intimate partner violence.  Utilizing a weighted scoring system, officers can determine whether or not victims are at a “high risk” for danger.  If deemed “high risk,” officers will immediately attempt to connect the victim with advocates via telephone.  Studies show that a minimal number of intimate partner homicide victims used advocacy services before their deaths.  This assessment connects victims with valuable resources and information that might ultimately save their lives.   In this webinar, we’ll discuss the ins and outs of the lethality assessment, how to administer it, and the results of agencies currently using it.

The job of a law enforcement officer has always been challenging.  There has always been a psychological price to pay for those who serve. Those statements can be supported by the long-standing prevalence of substance abuse, divorce and suicide within the profession. However, recent social, cultural and political climates have had an impact upon law enforcement officers that is unprecedented.

This presentation will examine the psychological impact that recent events have had upon law enforcement officers in the United States.  As a result of that impact, the profession is experiencing a workforce crisis.  Based upon his work with officers and agencies across the U.S., the presenter will provide the latest statistics and examples of specific psychological threats to the individual and the profession. Suggestions that can enhance the resilience and increase the retention of law enforcement officers will be provided.

It has been said that culture eats strategy for lunch. So much hinges on the culture of the organization. But, if leadership is not intentional about building the culture, the culture will still develop – it just might not be the one you want or need. In this webinar, you’ll learn how gaining clarity on the values that are important to the organization can work to build the foundation of the intentional culture. Then, we’ll explore how leadership can work to ensure that those values get filtered through the organization and instilled in every member so that the culture best serves the mission of the agency and community.

The captive wildlife crisis is a largely unknown and dangerous problem throughout the United States. The private ownership of wildlife including, but not limited to, wild cats poses a significant risk to law enforcement officers in various law enforcement agencies. In addition, limited public knowledge for identifying some wild cat species and hybrids serves as a barrier to properly enforcing the limited laws on the federal and state levels regarding private ownership of wildlife. Tammy Thies of The Wildcat Sanctuary in Sandstone, Minnesota, and Tanya Smith of Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, work alongside the various law enforcement agencies when captive wild cats must be seized or are willfully surrendered. They will present valuable information for officers who respond to cases when the presence of wild cats (and other exotic animals) is known and when officers encounter captive wildlife including wild cats unexpectedly. In addition, Ms. Thies and Ms. Smith will discuss identifying wild cat species/hybrids, relevant laws, proper response procedures when you encounter a wild cat, and resources available to you as first responders including transport, rehoming, and placement with proper facilities after the seizure of wild cats.

When the coronavirus pandemic struck, facilities from around the country had to quickly assess how they would respond. Faced by many challenges, facilities, from across the country, battled on a number of different fronts: physically, socially, and legally. Using the resources they had available to them, including NCCHC Standards for Correctional Health Care, many of them were able to manage the pandemic instead of the pandemic managing them. Utilizing these standards and guidance from agencies like 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, successes began to emerge. During this session, we will discuss how they did it.

 

During this webinar, we will:

• Share ways to improve quality in health services during pandemics
• Discuss strategies for reducing liability and risk
• Describe how nationally recognized standards can help mitigate your infectious disease risk
• Hear how professionals are planning for the next pandemic

First responder and frontline occupations such as law enforcement, corrections, and the fire service are inherently stressful occupations, often leading to high rates of burnout that far surpass those of the general population. In the wake of recent events such as COVID-19, civil unrest, and police defunding, these issues have added another layer of adversity experienced by first responders.

Burnout is the mental or physical collapse caused by stress, overwork, or doing work that no longer feels connected to your life’s purpose. Over time it causes you to run out of energy, leads to extreme exhaustion, cynicism, and inefficacy. It can be debilitating mentally and emotionally, and can flow over into the rest of your life, as well as affect your physical health.

Resilience is a protective factor that helps people bounce back from adversity, more quickly, and with less negative side effects. It has been shown by research to be a teachable mindset and skillset that few people are taught, but everyone needs, especially when dealing with times of change. It is the unlock key for success in long-term, massively-challenging endeavors.  Resilient and adaptable individuals and teams are the secret ingredient of organizations that thrive despite obstacles.

During this webinar, we will:

• Explain the differences between stress and burnout
• Discuss the causes and symptoms of burnout
• Provide an overview of burnout in law enforcement, firefighters, corrections officers, and other first responder groups
• Explain how resilience can help provide the proactive tools that can support first responders in dealing with adversities linked to burnout
• and provide an overview of current research on the impact of resilience training on overall wellbeing

Sometimes you hear about someone going “into treatment,” and then you hear about, “when they came out of treatment,” but it remains somewhat of a mystery about what goes on in the middle. This webinar will outline the criteria for admission into different levels of treatment, including outpatient, inpatient, and IOP (intensive outpatient). We’ll also talk about what to expect during these different levels of treatment, and how they work. And of course we’ll then talk about the “after treatment” expectations, and how to maintain the positive outcomes that treatment is designed to provide long-term.

Have you had an employee that co-workers or supervisors were concerned about their behavior related to potential violence or self-harm? Has progressive discipline related to decreased performance now reached the point of a separation or termination of an employee?

No single behavioral indicator (other than direct threats) is an accurate predictor of the potential for future violence. As bad as missing behavioral risk indicators is unfairly labeling someone a risk when they really are not.

This webinar will allow the participant to transition from a subjective opinion about predictive potential of future violence or self-harm to objective assessment of a current or former employee. Many times, employees or supervisors will “assess” or voice their concerns based on a statement like “I have a bad feeling about how Jim is going to handle this corrective action or termination.” When asked if they can be more specific, they really cannot provide more objective information that will allow the organization to determine if this will be handled as a “high-risk termination” or not.

All participants will be given an electronic copy of a “Behavior Risk Assessment Checklist” in PDF format.

During this webinar, we will discuss:

• Victim vs. Victimizer Worldview
• Aggravating vs. Protective Behavioral Factors
• Cluster and Singular Risk Factors
• Risk Assessment Scoring
• Subjective Opinion vs. Objective Assessments

How do you rise above the noise, and even more so, above the headlines to ensure that your audiences are getting all of the information they need to make informed decisions? We’ll explore what has been working, and what will come next, in how we ensure that our communities know they can come to the experts – us – to be able to answer their questions, concerns, and that they know that whether they read a headline or the whole story, they can always connect with you.

America’s love affair with the automobile is a connection among many generations of Americans. This is due in large part to the innovation of the automobile and how the automobile transformed the American landscape. Also, and without question, the automobile is tied to a fundamental bond of what it means to be an American…..Freedom.

Unfortunately, this unique rite of passage comes with degrees of risk.  According to the Association for Safe International Road Travel, traffic fatalities account for 38,000 deaths every year in crashes on U.S. roadways. Also, an additional 4.4 million individuals are injured seriously enough to require medical attention. Sadly, these crashes are the leading cause of death in the U.S. for people aged 1-54 and create an economic and societal impact of road crashes costs U.S. citizens $871 billion annually.

Add the factor of the impaired driver and the impact is inconceivable when you think about the needless loss of life happening upon the roadways of America.  According to the Center of Disease Control, in 2016, 10,497 people died in alcohol-impaired driving crashes, accounting for 28% of all traffic-related deaths in the United States.¹  Of the 1,233 traffic deaths among children ages 0 to 14 years in 2016, 214 (17%) involved an alcohol-impaired driver.¹  In 2016, more than 1 million drivers were arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or narcotics.² That’s one percent of the 111 million self-reported episodes of alcohol-impaired driving among U.S. adults each year (figure below).  Drugs other than alcohol (legal and illegal) are involved in about 16% of motor vehicle crashes.³  

With these numbers, law enforcement officers across this great Country who are tasked to investigate motor vehicle crashes encounter potential complex crime scenes each time they arrive at a crash scene.  Law enforcement officers soon discover these types of investigations may require officers to wear many hats in pursuit of the truth.  Also, an officers’ willingness to collaborate with allied agencies may be in order to bring justice to victims and their families and to hold the negligent accountable.

This vehicular homicide investigation webinar series was designed to help strengthen skills used and needed during the three critical stages of a vehicular homicide investigation, i.e., on-scene management, forensics, and prosecution.

For this webinar series, the first of three installments entitled On-Scene Management, Master Corporal Schultz will discuss lessons learned and procedures as it relates to the documentation of vehicular homicide crime scenes.  Master Corporal Schultz begins this series with dialogue focused upon the use of both traditional methods and the use of newer innovative technologies such as total station technology, laser mapping scanners, and unmanned aerial drones. Also, Master Corporal Schultz will discuss important key investigative areas such as, electronic data recorder (EDR) collection, driver impairment issues, legal and established case law, interviewing witnesses, interacting with allied agencies, and the importance of the victim to investigator relationship starting off on the right foot.

Virtually every citizen interaction with police now involves some form of image, video or digital file. Such evidence comes from an ever-increasing array of devices including cell phones, tablets, computers, security cameras, and even wearable devices. Is law enforcement ready to collect these digital assets and secure them on their chain of evidence journey through to the courts?

This webinar will help justice practitioners understand:

• • The 5 stages of the digital evidence lifecycle
  • Importance of the connectivity between stages
  • Where the lifecycle is broken
  • How to fix it

Changing American policing begins with who agencies hire and how they are trained. While there has been considerable attention paid in recent years to improving police recruiting, the way new officers are trained has changed very little. As the policing profession enters a time of enormous change and challenges, as well as greater expectations and scrutiny from the public, it is critical police academy training change too. The Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) has been examining the current state of police academy training in the United States, including through a national survey of police leaders. In addition, PERF has been studying pockets of innovations in police training, both nationally and internationally, and developing a set of guiding principles for moving police academy training forward. This webinar will summarize PERF’s work in this area and present its major findings and recommendations.

Attendees of this webinar will learn about the following:

• The results of a national survey of police leaders on the current state of police academy training.
• Innovative approaches that some academies are taking with respect to overall training philosophy, curriculum, and instructors.
• Best practices in integrating academy and field training for new officers.
• Guiding principles on what the police academy of the future should look like and how it should operate.

Media and social media are more interwoven with our lives than ever before, with limited control over the amount and type of content we consume. Regardless of how many accounts you have or how often you check your phone, social media and the media impact how we understand the world, build connection, and access each other, making the boundaries between our physical and digital selves more complex.

Understanding what this means for trauma survivors is critical to the healing process and avoiding re-traumatization. By identifying the intersection between trauma and media, we can empower survivors with information on consuming media content and utilize best practices that can protect us from secondary and vicarious trauma.

During this Webinar, we will:

• Discuss the prevalence of media consumption in our lives and the “filter bubble” that controls what we view
• Explain how we may experience direct trauma, indirect trauma and re-traumatization through media
• Identify the pros and cons to social media and other technologies in the healing process
• Review best practices for survivors and victim service providers in using social media and consuming media content, including the ethical imperative to set boundaries in our digital lives.

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.

Sometimes it seems the world has gone straight past crazy and directly to chaos.  A place where nothing makes sense and we can feel a great loss of control.  Many times, fast-paced chaotic events cause us to react rather than respond to events.  In this webinar, we will look at chaos through the lens of emotional intelligence.

Emotional Intelligence (EI) is the ultimate in situational awareness.  EI is identifying your emotions and being able to lessen the effects of the more troubling emotions. The greater the impact of negative emotions, the larger the stress response can be.  This reaction can limit executive brain function and adversely impact the body’s physiological system.

Attendees will be introduced to EI, how to increase situation awareness, and respond rather than react in chaotic situations.   Additionally, we will look at Cynefin, a sensemaking model to help manage yourself in changing environments.

America’s love affair with the automobile is a connection among many generations of Americans. This is due in large part to the innovation of the automobile and how the automobile transformed the American landscape. Also, and without question, the automobile is tied to a fundamental bond of what it means to be an American…..Freedom.

Unfortunately, this unique rite of passage comes with degrees of risk.  According to the Association for Safe International Road Travel, traffic fatalities account for 38,000 deaths every year in crashes on U.S. roadways. Also, an additional 4.4 million individuals are injured seriously enough to require medical attention. Sadly, these crashes are the leading cause of death in the U.S. for people aged 1-54 and create an economic and societal impact of road crashes costs U.S. citizens $871 billion annually.

Add the factor of the impaired driver and the impact is inconceivable when you think about the needless loss of life happening upon the roadways of America.  According to the Center of Disease Control, in 2016, 10,497 people died in alcohol-impaired driving crashes, accounting for 28% of all traffic-related deaths in the United States.¹  Of the 1,233 traffic deaths among children ages 0 to 14 years in 2016, 214 (17%) involved an alcohol-impaired driver.¹  In 2016, more than 1 million drivers were arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or narcotics.² That’s one percent of the 111 million self-reported episodes of alcohol-impaired driving among U.S. adults each year (figure below).  Drugs other than alcohol (legal and illegal) are involved in about 16% of motor vehicle crashes.³  

With these numbers, law enforcement officers across this great Country who are tasked to investigate motor vehicle crashes encounter potential complex crime scenes each time they arrive at a crash scene.  Law enforcement officers soon discover these types of investigations may require officers to wear many hats in pursuit of the truth.  Also, an officers’ willingness to collaborate with allied agencies may be in order to bring justice to victims and their families and to hold the negligent accountable.

This vehicular homicide investigation webinar series was designed to help strengthen skills used and needed during the three critical stages of a vehicular homicide investigation, i.e., on-scene management, forensics, and prosecution.

In the second installment, entitled Forensics is Our Friend.  Master Corporal Schultz enlists the assistance of Crime Laboratory Analyst Supervisor Ron Mueller of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Both Master Corporal Schultz and Analyst Mueller discuss the positive and negative lessons learned regarding the importance of on-scene evidence collection and how time and missed opportunities will negatively impact these types of investigations, especially when it pertains to hit and run investigations.  Also, Analyst Mueller will discuss both myths and limitations of what can be learned from on-scene evidence once it has been analyzed.

Researchers defined crisis as a common, though often unexpected, time-sensitive, high-impact event that may disrupt organizational functioning and pose relational threats. In a Deloitte online poll of more than 2,000 C-suite executives, managers, analysts, and crisis professionals from US and international companies were divided on who in their organizations would lead a crisis response. A large percentage also did not know what their biggest gap in crisis preparedness would be, and half of the respondents were not sure whether the crisis response team had been tested, including leaders.

 

This presentation will cover the FIVE THINGS HIGHLY EFFECTIVE LEADERS can do during turbulent times:

• Be Mindset-Aware. When you’re competent, it makes you capable and confident.
• Be Situationally-Aware. It’s not if, but when. Be prepared for the moment.
• Be Critic-Aware. Critics come from internal, external and from you.
• Be Compassion-Aware. People are a priority, your priority.
• Be Self-Care Aware. If you are not able to lead, then who will?

For many clients, the difference between rehabilitation and recidivism is the ability to create sustainable habits. All too often it is assumed that motivation is the most important factor in developing long-term behavior change…it’s not. For years community supervision has applied a variety of tactics to motivate change — incentives, sanctions, and programs and services — with varying levels of success. One often overlooked, more universal approach, is building sustainable habits – both for clients and the agencies that serve them.

If the events of 2020 have taught us anything, it is that disruption leads to change. Unfortunately for many, the post-pandemic norm has resulted in disruptive habits for clients, staff, and agencies. We all know you can’t order people to change, but what you can do is help develop habits that are building blocks for change. Clients need solid habits that will support them through rehabilitation, and beyond.

This webinar will provide insight into the components needed to build successful habits and provide a roadmap you can use to develop habit-driven skills and processes for agencies and clients.

How many times have you heard about someone who retired, and then figured out that they had no idea what to do with themselves? In a First Responder career, and many others, the “job” becomes the “identity” all too often, and so when someone leaves the job for any reason, the individual also then finds they don’t know who they are without it. This webinar will talk about finding balance between your career and your individual self, so that you can have a healthier overall well-being throughout your entire career, but also after you retire or move on to the next phase of your life. Balance is finding the right amount of each of the positive & negative elements in your life, and making sure to plan for the long-term with both. This webinar will include some self-assessment exercises, and leave you with a list of recommendations that you can put together to create your own long-term balance plan.

Over the past two decades, there has been a rapidly increasing number of convictions overturned on the grounds of factual innocence. Many of these post-conviction exonerations have been led by police and prosecutors, yet little attention has been paid to the impact on the victims and survivors of the original crime. Addressing and meeting their needs is critical to promoting trust and fairness in our criminal justice system. This presentation will present actual experiences of victims and survivors and provide expert recommendations and tools for providing victim services and protecting victims’ rights in these cases.

This webinar will describe a National Institute of Justice funded study to evaluate the effectiveness of two different modalities of implicit bias training at promoting fairness in police decision making and ultimately improving the outcomes of police-citizen encounters. The study purpose and design will be described, and preliminary results on training effectiveness will be presented.

This presentation is Lecture 3 in a 3-part series focused on the issues related to extreme violence perpetrated by children and adolescents. The third lecture in this series focuses on neurodevelopmentally informed approaches to the forensic interview of youth who are accused of committing physically or sexually violent acts.

The foundation of case development, and formulation of expert opinion, is the suspect interview. The interview process itself is a high stake, stressful situation for all involved. Individual motives compete as the interview proceeds; the interviewee seeks exoneration, the police interviewer seeks information to support or refute his or her theory of the crime, and the forensic psychiatrist seeks to synthesize the available information to provide the trier of fact an unbiased expert opinion. Overt or subtle coercion can have a devastating impact on the interviewee’s freedom to provide a factual account of their behaviors. The impact of coercion is amplified for youth due to ongoing neurodevelopment which creates additional susceptibility. Techniques that can adapt to the neurocognitive context of the interview target, utilize a flexible approach, and encourage truth-telling to reduce the interview related drivers of false confession by minimizing coercion inherent in the interview process itself.  With this introduction to the elements that contribute to coercion and approaches that either amplify or mitigate their effects, a neurodevelopmentally informed approach to interviewing of youth will be discussed through an exploration of topics including:

• The neurocognitive, and neurodevelopmental, processes that impact an individual’s susceptibility to coercion including genetic and environmental factors
• Specific indicators of that a youth may be experiencing coercion and techniques to decrease the likelihood that youth will experience coercion during the interview process
• False allegation
• False confession

These concepts will be reinforced by case examples of interviewing techniques that resulted in signs of coercion and discussion of known historical cases of false confession/false allegation. References and resource materials will be provided in addition to lecture content.

After attending this presentation:

• Attendees will be able to identify characteristics of coercion during police interviews and compare the coerciveness of different police interviewing techniques.
• Attendees will be able to identify neurodevelopmental and cognitive processes that impact the likelihood of obtaining a false confession or false allegation.
• Attendees will be able to evaluate interview outcomes for the presence of coercion.

America’s love affair with the automobile is a connection among many generations of Americans. This is due in large part to the innovation of the automobile and how the automobile transformed the American landscape. Also, and without question, the automobile is tied to a fundamental bond of what it means to be an American…..Freedom.

Unfortunately, this unique rite of passage comes with degrees of risk.  According to the Association for Safe International Road Travel, traffic fatalities account for 38,000 deaths every year in crashes on U.S. roadways. Also, an additional 4.4 million individuals are injured seriously enough to require medical attention. Sadly, these crashes are the leading cause of death in the U.S. for people aged 1-54 and create an economic and societal impact of road crashes costs U.S. citizens $871 billion annually.

Add the factor of the impaired driver and the impact is inconceivable when you think about the needless loss of life happening upon the roadways of America.  According to the Center of Disease Control, in 2016, 10,497 people died in alcohol-impaired driving crashes, accounting for 28% of all traffic-related deaths in the United States.¹  Of the 1,233 traffic deaths among children ages 0 to 14 years in 2016, 214 (17%) involved an alcohol-impaired driver.¹  In 2016, more than 1 million drivers were arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or narcotics.² That’s one percent of the 111 million self-reported episodes of alcohol-impaired driving among U.S. adults each year (figure below).  Drugs other than alcohol (legal and illegal) are involved in about 16% of motor vehicle crashes.³  

With these numbers, law enforcement officers across this great Country who are tasked to investigate motor vehicle crashes encounter potential complex crime scenes each time they arrive at a crash scene.  Law enforcement officers soon discover these types of investigations may require officers to wear many hats in pursuit of the truth.  Also, an officers’ willingness to collaborate with allied agencies may be in order to bring justice to victims and their families and to hold the negligent accountable.

This vehicular homicide investigation webinar series was designed to help strengthen skills used and needed during the three critical stages of a vehicular homicide investigation, i.e., on-scene management, forensics, and prosecution.

In the third and final installment of this webinar series entitled, The Prosecution Rests.  Master Corporal Schultz enlists the assistance of Assistant State Attorney Martin Stark a current member of the Office of the State Attorney, Twentieth Judicial Circuit for the State of Florida. Both Master Corporal Schultz and ASA Stark discuss how and what is needed for the successful prosecution of vehicular homicide cases.  Also, ASA Stark shares insights on both positive and negative lessons learned from past cases, along with how the Office of the State Attorney internal organizational structure was developed and put into practice in order to meet the needs of the community to prosecute these in-depth complex criminal cases.

This webinar will focus on the need to better utilize places of worship in the fight to end family violence. Participants will learn of unique research conducted by the presenter to explore the spatial proximity of places of worship to locations of family violence incidents in the community and locations of known registered violent/sexual offenders. Taking a firm and unequivocal stand against abuse, developing inclusive support groups for victims, training staff in spotting warning signs of abuse (and what to do next), and creating an environment victims will feel safe and comfortable disclosing victimization in will all be discussed as key initiatives every place of worship must consider adopting.

 

Victims of family violence often report wanting to disclose abuse in the home to church leaders while church leaders often report not feeling qualified to assist – likely resulting in critical missed opportunities. During this info-packed session we will also explore how to best bridge this gap through the development of inclusive community partnerships and explore how churches can best help families vulnerable to abuse during widespread crisis.

This webinar will talk about the history of the Community Cat Program at the Animal Welfare League of Arlington (AWLA) in Arlington, Virginia including where we were, where we are now, and how we got there. We will discuss how to garner successful support and buy-in for a jurisdiction-wide program, how to resolve the most common community cat conflicts, and what supportive needs arise during a TNR program. Since The Community Cat Program’s inception in 2011, Arlington notes a 70% decrease in feral colony size and an 82% decrease in cat euthanasia, as fewer strays mean fewer cats are brought to the shelter. Our program has achieved what everyone ultimately wants to see- a humane solution to the issue of outdoor cats.

Have you ever seen a child that is an absolute brat and thought, “their parents need to teach them better”? Well, those children likely learned that poor behavior from their parents. The same is true in organizations. Research shows us, if we want our officers to practice procedural justice in their interactions with citizens on the street, they must see it being practiced by their leaders inside the organization.

In this webinar, you’ll gain an understanding of the importance of the perception of the people within the organization in shaping their behaviors and how, as a leader, you can foster procedural justice throughout the agency to ensure it is practiced outside as well.
