The landscape of law enforcement in the United States is in a constant state of evolution. From the transition to the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) from the traditional FBI Uniform Crime Report (UCR) to the growing need for comprehensive officer training and community engagement strategies, police departments nationwide are navigating a complex web of changes and challenges. These shifts underscore the critical need for innovative approaches to support law enforcement agencies in their mission to serve and protect. As the demands on police officers grow more complex, the importance of access to high-quality training, resources and technical assistance cannot be overstated. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, host Jim Dudley talks to David T. Snively, a program manager for the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), to explore how the Collaborative Reform Initiative Technical Assistance Center (CRI-TAC) program can assist law enforcement agencies in navigating current challenges. This initiative offers police agencies access to tailored training and resources designed to meet their unique needs. Through this conversation, listeners gain a deeper understanding of how CRI-TAC empowers agencies to improve their operations and foster better relationships with the communities they serve.
