SUMMARY:Law Enforcement Tools and Strategies to Strengthen Relationships with Immigrant Communities
DESCRIPTION:Language access and the U and T visa programs are important tools that strengthen victim\, community\, and officer safety. With over 200 languages and dialects spoken in the United States\, law enforcement agencies face ongoing challenges investigating crimes involving victims\, suspects\, and witnesses with limited ability to communicate effectively in English. Cultural barriers and immigration status can create vulnerabilities for victims of domestic violence\, sexual assault\, stalking\, dating violence\, child abuse\, and human trafficking. Often\, these victims do not access law enforcement or community resources due to fear that reporting will lead to deportation or separation from their children. This training will provide attendees with information about U and T visas and the use of qualified interpreters to build trust between immigrant\, refugee\, and limited English proficient victims and community-based organizations. This interactive event will present promising practices for effectively using interpreters\, leveraging bilingual officers\, identifying technology to support interactions with victims\, and implementing tools to strengthen victim safety\, ensure perpetrator accountability\, and improve community trust. \nSpeaker: Cannon Han\, Senior Program Manager \nLeslye Orloff\, Adjunct Professor and Director \nMichael Wilmore-Crumrine\, Sergeant \nOrganization/Agency: Office on Violence Against Women\, National Violence Against Women Law Enforcement Training and Technical Assistance Consortium (LETTAC) \nCEUs: Pending \nREGISTER HERE\nLimited to 50 attendees
