This class will discuss the fight, flight and freeze responses and how to deal with these responses using de-escalation techniques.

Special attention will include topics on complacency, building community trust, the role of ego in the decision making process, communicating with people suffering from mental illness, the importance of proper training, how stress affects decision making, officer safety and the necessary use-of-force.

It includes Community Relations, Trust Building, Human/Cultural Diversity, Ethical Decision-Making Skills and Officer Safety.
