Law enforcement often respond to youth experiencing behavioral health crises as first responders to provide connections to emergency care. Unfortunately, law enforcement-only responses to youth in crisis can result in higher risk of involvement in the juvenile justice system and traumatization. Though trainings for law enforcement agencies on behavioral health crisis responses and trauma-informed care are increasing, many of them are not properly trained or do not have the resources available to effectively respond to the needs of youth in crisis.

Often viewed as a nuisance as opposed to a crime, swatting calls have become extremely common over the past decade. Intertwined with the online gaming culture, swatting has become so popular that there are Discord, YouTube, and Telegram channels dedicated to it. Many police departments feel that these cases will often lead them outside of their jurisdictions, or even their country, and thus they are fruitless and pointless investigations. Nothing could be further from the truth! This webinar will cover common swatting and VoIP abuse trends, best investigatory avenues, and case studies.
