Response to Citizens with Special Needs

Responding to special needs individuals is a very frequent occurrence for law

enforcement and it's important to understand the differences, not just in how

they see the world, but how they interact with it. In this course, Dr. Davis, PhD,

will explain the difference between mental disorders and developmental

disorder, the calls for service that might involve special needs subjects, and de-

escalation methods to be employed with special needs subjects who may be in

crisis.
