Effective School Staff Interactions with Students and Police Curriculum
The Effective School Staff Interactions with Students and Police is a training opportunity for professionals who work within the school setting.

- Increase school staff knowledge of: Youth behavior , Strategies for interacting effectively with students, The role of law enforcement in schools, and How the juvenile justice system works.
- Increase school staff awareness of disproportionate minority contact (DMC) with the school disciplinary and juvenile justice systems.
- Improve school staff attitudes toward students exhibiting inappropriate behavior.
