Finally! Some excellent peer-reviewed research validating the effectiveness of de-escalation in a major law enforcement agency. There will no doubt, as always, be detractors and critics, and research is ongoing (including by our organization). If you are not using a validated de-escalation program in your LE or corrections agency, your liability and the safety of all are at risk. We are ready to assist.

Safe schools start with smart strategies. De-escalation promotes communication, cooperation and education. Use the teachable moment.Where is handicapped/disabilities/older persons sick in the correction?
Congratulations
The problem is, the standards are so low to become a cop, that what you have are people with a badge and gun who WANT to shoot other human beings. A good bit of those in law enforcement LOOK FORWARD to pulling that trigger at another human being.
Congratulations‼️
Awesome, Congrats !!!!

De-escalation should begin as soon as a dispatcher takes a call. Sadly, few dispatchers are trained in verbal de-escalation techniques. We have provided such training. Call us for assistance.
The Missing Link in Police Reform: 911 Call-Takers | The Crime Report
thecrimereport.org
The wrongful arrest of Harvard Prof. Henry Louis Gates in 2009 started with a 911 call-taker who exaggerated the original complaint. Training on how to distinguish between high-risk and low-risk calls...There are not a lot of comments on these posts. So I will add one that most dispatchers do not want or want to acknowledge. Any new 911 dispatch system and SOPs have to address the equipment used by 911 dispatch. 1. Remove edit-on-the-fly capabilies. 2. Remove post-edit capabilities. 3. Remove the ability to save dispatch recordings to unrecoverable formats. 4. Remove the use of personal and disposable cell phones. 5. Record all conversations at the scene. All conversations by LE and others using the system are potentially exculpatory. 27/30.5 minutes of MY dispatch tape was erased and saved to a unrecoverable format. State of NH vs Stuart Urie -Stuart If you want real reform and effective change, you must embrace these things. Otherwise it is all just talk and window dressing.

The bill is aimed at creating more accountability and transparency in police departments across the stateDE-ESCALATE's Executive Director, Jeff Golden, and Dr. Lisa Rapp-McCall, Professor of Social Work at Saint Leo University in Florida, have taught a joint law enforcement / social worker seminar (2018 and 2020) on how these two professions can work together more effectively. It is no surprise that human service professionals have significantly more training in de-escalation techniques that most law enforcement officers and combining the two professionals brings exceptional skills to bear on the most troubling of encounters. Drs. Golden and Rapp-McCall are conducting ongoing research on the effectiveness of this combination of resources as well as the potential to develop innovative, combined training for both professions.

Punches, broken bones and more: 1 in 4 nurses are attacked on the job, study says
www.wsbtv.com
Federal reports show at least 58 hospital workers died from workplace violence between 2011 and 2016.We have been raising this question for years in our classes. It is critical to understand how and why adult brains sometimes act like children’s brains and to know you have effective tools to influence and de-esaclate both. DE-ESCALATE has the answers.
Why is 18 the age of adulthood if the brain can take 30 years to mature?

Neuroscience research suggests it might be time to rethink our ideas about when exactly a child becomes an adult.
Sadly, these researchers have repeatedly warned departments that their poor policies and training were going to get them into trouble...yet few listen. "Investigators attributed officers’unlawful stop, search, and arrest practices to (1) key departmental policies and (2) glaring deficiencies in training and oversight. The report associated the widespread use of aggressive tactics with crime-control policies that incentivized officers but also damaged police-community relations. Officers appeared disposed to use force rather than employing de-escalation techniques, including with mentally ill persons."

Health care workers often face physical and verbal abuse from patients and patients' family members.We are once again honored to present at the annual Saint Leo University Social Work conference with Dr. Lisa Rapp-McCall!
Jeff Golden, to what other organizations do you provide this type of training?
We are honored to be teaching DE-ESCALATE with Dr. Lisa Rapp-McCall today at Saint Leo University’s main campus to a great group of law enforcement and correction officers, 911 dispatchers and social workers. The university is leading the way in helping criminal justice and social work professionals learn from each other and stay safe.
Sadly, this is another example of school officials who are poorly trained (if at all) in youth-specific de-escalation techniques and safe restraints. It pains us to see such things knowing that there are safe and effective alternatives with DE-ESCALATE.
