NADCP Conference: Rise 24

Since 1995, NADCP has convened the only national conference for treatment court professionals.

What remains constant is the unparalleled education, networking, and fellowship enjoyed by every attendee!

NLERSP Webinar - Emergency Vehicle Technology: Leveraging Advances to Improve Officer Safety

In 2021, law enforcement experienced a 38% increase in roadway-related fatalities from 2020. Alarmingly, this increase was driven in part by a 100% increase in struck-by fatalities, with 28 officers killed – the highest ever recorded (NLEOMF, 2022). Reducing injuries and fatalities from officer-involved collisions and struck-by incidents must be a top priority for all law enforcement professionals in 2022 to reverse these sobering trends.
