Evaluation Comments from previous Seminar hosted by the LEORTC

Excellent and current presentation – Our service had an on-duty collision death in March. More of our people need to hear this message.
Excellent presentation on a very live topic. Everything was very relevant.
Great Course, Great Instructor, Very Pertinent Course Material.
This information/video would be very useful for my presentation to my officers. I like the follow up interviews with officers involved in these incidents.
This course should be taught at Academies and In-Service Schools. Too many young officers feel they are invincible.

Mexican Drug Cartel Investigations

Mexican drug trafficking organizations are impacting communities in nearly every city in the United States. In 2011, Mexican drug cartels operated in 39 states across the country. This problem can no longer be viewed as a “border issue.” The majority of the drugs distributed and consumed in the U.S. originate in Mexico. In an effort to aggressively target drug trafficking organization, law enforcement officials need to understand how the Mexican drug war impacts local cities in the U.S. on a daily basis. The drug cartel leaders have strategically formed relationships with American gangs to flood our communities with illicit drugs. This relationship has caused great concern for law enforcement agencies in the U.S. It is imperative that law enforcement officials gain a true understanding of the “Mexican Cartel & American Street Gang Connection.” This course does not focus on statistical data or other information easily obtained through online searches regarding Mexican drug cartels. The information presented is based on the instructor’s unique experience in conducting long-term undercover operations, wire-tap intercepts, and debriefings of suspects directly linked to various Mexican drug cartels.

Overview
Each year, Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.) provides training to America’s law enforcement agencies on how to appropriately respond to officers and their families affected by line-of-duty traumas through the “Traumas of Law Enforcement” trainings. At these trainings, instructors will present information that is important to America’s law enforcement agencies regarding appropriate response to line-of-duty death, disability, critical incidents, and police suicide.
The training is presented over three days and includes 21-hours of class time. The “Traumas of Law Enforcement” has been said to be “the best training I have taken in my entire law enforcement career” by many who have attended.
At the conclusion of this training, the participants will have information about:
1. How an agency’s response to tragedy directly affects the level of distress of their officers and surviving family members.
2. How an individual officer’s pre-planning may directly affect the public safety officer benefit their family may receive in the event of their line-of-duty death.
3. How an officer can successfully navigate the cumulative stress caused by experiencing critical incidents throughout a law enforcement career and how their agency can assist with this.
4. The warning signs and symptoms of Police Suicide.
All of the participants in this training will be provided information about the available federal public safety officer benefits and their individual state benefits.
Some of the same issues that affect survivors come into play for officers with disabilities and those coping with trauma.
