Location: Salisbury Civic Center, 315 S. MLK Jr. Ave
This training session is designed specifically for community members, although law enforcement agencies are encouraged to include sworn personnel in this training to enhance the dialogue and discussions with community members.
This training reflects a science-based approach to understanding human biases and prejudices; it is about how our minds work and how to most effectively make unbiased decisions.
This training is relevant for ALL individual—community members and officers alike. Specifically, the purpose of this training is to: (1) enhance community members’ understanding of the FIP training that the department is/will be getting and the law enforcement perspective and (2) apply the concepts of the FIP training to their own lives and decision-making.
