Ohio CIT Program of the Year 2009
|
The Tri-County CIT Program was named Ohio's CIT Program of the Year for 2009. The program was recognized for the exceptional training it provides to police officers as well as expanding the program to provide training for mental health and additional law enforcement personnel. In 2008 the Tri-County CIT Program expanded to offer a two-day CIT Companion Course for Behavior Health Professionals. This training helped mental health professionals gain perspective on the parameters of law enforcement by offering practical information about the complex criminal justice system. The Tri-County CIT Program also includes specialized training for local and county emergency dispatchers as well as jail and corrections personnel.
