The Kansas City Missouri Police Departments Regional Training Academy had the opportunity to bring in the Blue Courage course for a select few of our members. All who attended found great value in the course and the messages that are given. Due to current fiscal constraints, we are not able to fund this training on a recurring basis during the current or coming fiscal year.

Nebraska was a Blue Courage pilot site for implementing Blue Courage principles in the basic police academy in 2015. All four Nebraska academies participated and is a part of basic training. We have now been moved to a "full-immersion state" and are requesting an additional Blue Courage train-the-trainer to include law enforcement agencies without a police academy to complete the Nebraska full immersion project. We anticipate having the next training on the eastern side of the state, sometime in the spring of 2017.

The ABA seeks to update the Ten Principles of a Public Defense Delivery System. The ABA Ten Principles are the most influential statement on public defense today:

• States and nations build and improve defender systems using the Principles.

• The Principles guide U.S.D.O.J. public defense grant making.

• The United Nations modeled global standards on the Principles.

As Attorney General Eric Holder has said, the Ten Principles give “shape to our aspirations” and “quite literally set the standard, and developed a framework, for progress.”
