Description

This course has been adapted from a previous learning community designed to encourage schools and their partner law enforcement agencies to discuss what form they want their partnership to take and consider important issues related to their partnerships. The discussion questions in the companion workbook are intended to be discussed between schools and their partner law enforcement agencies. However, participants can also take this course independently and use the workbook prompts as an opportunity for reflection.
