An effective Coordinated Community Response (CCR) is much more than a monthly meeting. An effective CCR enables practitioners and advocates to analyze problems and to implement meaningful changes in how things are done. This three-day training is valuable for law enforcement, advocates, probation officers, judges, prosecutors, social workers, counselors, and organizers who want to enhance the effectiveness of their CCR.

The training will help you:

• Assess your community's current response
• Build consensus to reform system response
• Keep practitioners and community activists working together positively to resolve difficult problems
• Evaluate reform efforts and make adjustments based on data

Topics include: 

• The basic activities of a CCR team
• Interagency policy development that focuses on victim safety 
• Building working relationships with practitioners in the CCR 
• Assessing danger and risk of offenders 
• Building a common philosophical framework around domestic violence
• Networking and information sharing
• Using a database to track offenders through law enforcement and court systems
• Lessons from the St. Paul Blueprint 

Participants will meet with their counterparts in the criminal and civil justice systems, and there will be opportunities for police ride-alongs and observation of men's nonviolence classes.
