In partnership with the Miami Police Department and Dedication to Community (D2C), we will facilitate the specialized training of all of Miami’s sworn police officers with the goals of positively impacting interactions between law enforcement and our diverse, local community—particularly the Black community. In September, the partnership began with a pilot program, training a subset of Miami PD officers with the longer-term goal of providing training to all of the sworn officers of the Miami PD force, with the eventual goal of training the remaining civilian employees as well.
Training of the entire complement of sworn police officers is scheduled to begin in January 2021.
