    Webinar - Preventing Violent Crime Through Mitigation of Emerging Shadow Economic Trends

    Due to constrained resources and ever-increasing public pressure to reimagine policing, agencies across the nation are deprioritizing non-violent investigations. In order for the non-violent disciplines to remain relevant, they must demonstrate to leadership how their area of expertise fits into the agency's violent-crime suppression priorities. In precursor training, we explained how the shadow economy destabilizes our communities and exacerbates the sub-cultures of drugs, gangs, and violence. In this webinar, we will take a closer look at the link between crimes-for-profit and the immediate or subsequent acts of violence they trigger. Attendees will learn how to

    • Understand how crimes-for-profit generate violence
    • Analyze emerging economic trends to anticipate increases in crime and violence
    • Create leadership support in relation to their area of expertise and their agency's violent crime reduction program

This webinar will also discuss the importance of meaningful partnerships with subject matter experts and the ethical obligation to ensure wellness programs, no matter how well-intentioned, do not harm the agency.
