Training and Technical Assistance

The Community Outreach through Police in Schools Program can be replicated in communities across the country. Ideally, this program would be replicated as part of a broader communitywide Child Development-Community Policing Program initiative. This program may not be ideally suited to all communities. However, the basic principles of the program can be adapted to the needs and resources of a community. Interested communities may contact the CD–CP Program that is part of the National Center for Children Exposed to Violence (www.nccev.org), based at the Yale University Child Study Center, for more information or to request assistance with replication. Information about available training and technical assistance and other elements of the CD–CP Program at the Yale University Child Study Center may also be obtained through the Office for Victims of Crime or the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention at the U.S. Department of Justice.
