Comprehensive Sexual Assault and Child Abuse Investigations

This course has been redesigned to equip police officers with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively handle sexual assault and child abuse cases, which are often among the most challenging and dynamic they will encounter. Through a combination of lectures, interactive workshops, role-playing exercises, and case study analysis participants will be better prepared to manage the complexities of sexual assault and child abuse cases with sensitivity, competence, and professionalism.

Additionally, this course will also satisfy the requirement codified in NYS Executive Law §838-a Section 3(a) which requires each police agency, prosecutorial agency and other law enforcement agency within New York State to designate at least one person, who is trained in trauma and victim response that meets the minimum trainings standards.
