Law Enforcement / Adjudications

The Louisville, Kentucky, Metro Police Department hosted a PSP group peer exchange to its officer safety and wellness center called The Summit. The Summit is a groundbreaking facility and has truly changed the landscape of how law enforcement agencies approach officer safety and wellness issues. The facility focuses on mental health, injury rehabilitation, physical fitness, spiritual support, and financial stability. Funded through vast public support and generous donations, The Summit will be the gold standard for agencies to emulate for years to come.

To deepen staff understanding, GPD would like to send the officers that work in their RTCC for further observation of a fully functioning RTCC rather than just sending departmental leadership. The staff hope to learn how Cleveland established, supports, and uses their RTCC. GPD will return from this engagement with processes and tools that will inform their crime analysis strategies.

In this session the BWC TTA team will host a session focused on working with prosecutors on review and downstream coordination of BWC evidence.

On June 22-24, 2021, the Body-worn Camera (BWC) Training and Technical Assistance (TTA) team, in partnership with the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), held the 2020 BWC TTA Virtual National Meeting. This meeting was primarily intended for FY 2020 BWC Policy and Implementation Program (PIP) grant agencies, but was also open to previous years' grantees. Members of the BWC TTA Team, subject matter experts (SMEs), and representatives from BJA and JSS also participated in the meeting. Due to COVID-19, this meeting was held in a virtual format again.
