Description of the Problem

For FYI, I'm not sure if my agency has received assistance from BJA before of not. I personally have never requested assistance.
I recently attended a Blue Courage instructor course and would like to send 10 more people to the training in July. Due to budget constraints our Department is unable to support this many people attending. I believe with your assistance I would be able to send this group to the training. I believe this training is extremely important for officers in today's environment.
If the BJA could assist with some of the costs of the class I truly believe the training could start a trend in law enforcement that could reverse some of the damage done by many high profile cases nationwide that has cast law enforcement in a negative light. It is vitally important that members of law enforcement seek out these opportunities to improve our relationships with the communities we serve. They deserve nothing less from us.

Performance Metrics
How do you anticipate that the requested assistance will address the problems?
The Reno Police Department attempts to send it's employees to as much training as possible but sometimes its simply too hard with the budget constraints. I believe with some assistance of additional funding my department would be more likely to send the amount of people needed to kick start this great training throughout all of the Nevada Law Enforcement Agencies.
