1. Community Service
Recruits are taught the basic methods of dealing with cultural and
socio-economic differences. Special emphasis is placed on dealing
with deaf persons, and developmentally disable persons, including
those with conditions of mental retardation, epilepsy, cerebral
palsy, and autism. Information relative to agencies which assist
developmentally disabled persons,is provided.
2. Human Relations
The influx of immigrants from Asia and Latin America entering the
United States since the 1960's and in increasing numbers in the
70's and 80's has assumed historically significant proportions.
The changes have created a new social dynamic in American culture.
There are major consequences of this social dynamic for the law
enforcement community. The need to explore and develop new
approaches and policies for criminal justice agencies is even more
apparent as we begin the 1990's.
The class will discuss what these issues mean to law enforcement
and our community and what demographic changes need to be
addressed. The Department augments its staff with outside
community instructors from the Black, Hispanic, Asian Pacific
Islander and Gay and Lesbian communities.
3. Rape Profiles
In the United States, the crime of rape is reported approximately
once very six minutes. It is one of the most violent crimes and
its occurrence is steadily increasing. While a majority of rapes
are committed by strangers, a large percentage is committed by
someone the victim knows. Rape is a crime of violence where the
suspect uses force or threats of harm to overpower and control the
victim. Although rape may or may not result in serious physical
injuries, it almost always causes severe emotional stress.
This class explores both suspect and victim reactions. The course
is designed to assist officers in understanding victim reactions
and how to deal with those reactions. Course also assists the
officers in identifying the modus operandi (MO) of the rape
suspects.
4. Hate Crimes
Incidents motivated by hatred or prejudice are among the most
vicious acts directed at an individual or group. For this reason,
such crimes require special attention by this Department. Quick
action, and a response that is sensitive to the needs of the
victim improves our overall effectiveness in dealing with hate
crimes.
