2024-09-05 08:00 - 09:00 (America/Chicago)
POST #21238

Sexual harassment in the workplace is not always easy to objectively identify. The difference between friendliness and inappropriateness can mean different things to different people. Because sexual attraction can play a role in the day-to-day social exchange between employees, “the distinction between invited and uninvited-but-welcome, offensive-but-tolerated, and flatly rejected” sexual advances may be difficult to discern. This 90 minute session offers the participant information to help identify and prevent unlawful harassment.
TOPICS INCLUDE:
• Defining Sexual Harassment & Identifying the Different Types;
• Warning Signs of Sexual Harassment;
• Preventing Sexual Harassment;
• How to tell if a coworker is being sexually harassed at work and what you can do about it; and
• Behavior to Look for in the Harasser.

WEBINAR: Police Militarization and its Effect on Constitutional Policing
2024-10-03 08:00 - 10:00
POST #26284

Some say the militarization of both rural and urban law enforcement may be attributed to the United States’ involvement in wars during the 20th century, and to increasingly frequent encounters with violent protesters and criminals with automatic weapons, explosives, and body armor. After the 2014 shooting of Michael Brown, and many other incidents that followed, the militarization of policing and the use of military equipment by police became the subjects of contentious debate among the public, policymakers, and scholars.
This presentation begins by addressing the question, “Have the police become over militarized?” It discusses the increased use of military style equipment and the possible negative consequences of a militarized police force. It finishes with a discussion on an acceptable balance between utilizing adequate safety equipment and protecting the community.
TOPICS INCLUDE:
• History of Police Militarization
• The Perception of the Militarization of Police
• Does Militarizing Local Police Reduce Crime
• Why American Police Officers Look Like Soldiers
• Procedural Justice and Building a Guardian Mindset
• Balancing Utilization of Adequate Safety Equipment With Serving the Community
