N/A
The VALOR Initiative uses a multifaceted approach to address officer safety and wellness needs and gaps. This includes delivering no-cost training, providing customized assistance, conducting research, developing and providing resources, and establishing partnerships that benefit law enforcement officers and the communities they serve. Central to the Initiative’s mission is providing innovative, data driven and research-based resources to inspire officers and their agencies to adopt a strong culture of safety and wellness to create a safer and healthy environment for all and improve community trust to lead to cooperative crime reduction efforts and safer communities. Through program activities, the Initiative seeks to: 1) Increase the knowledge and skills of state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies in officer safety and wellness through cutting-edge, innovative resources, training, and technical assistance. 2) Provide law enforcement officers with skills and tools to promote positive police/community relations and increase public trust. 3) Identify and address current and emerging safety and wellness threats and concerns to law enforcement. 4) Raise awareness of BJA’s officer safety and wellness programs, trainings, and resources. Performance Measures: Goals and objectives will be measured through collection of data recording the above listed program activities such as: 1) the number of trainings and technical assistance events held, law enforcement officers trained, law enforcement agencies assisted, and 2) the number of resources developed and disseminated.
