This two-day training is designed to provide participants the tools they need to create change in their communities and organizations. As many communities implement domestic abuse response teams, the need for solid investigation techniques from first responders has never been more important. A coordinated community response is an organized team effort. This training is designed to create a team approach where initially responding officers complete their investigation to meet the needs of not only law enforcement, but the needs of essential response team members as well. Command staff, field-based staff, probation and advocates are encouraged to come as teams.

·
Advanced probation assessments
·
Advanced investigation techniques
·

·
