SUMMARY:Leadership and Supervision in Today’s World\, Johnson County
DESCRIPTION:POST# 21279 \nMarch 25 & 26\, 2025\n8:00 am – 5:00 pm \nMost people equate leadership with a specific position or job title.

SUMMARY:New Sheriff Training 2024
DESCRIPTION:Congratulations on being elected sheriff – the job of your dreams! You should be incredibly proud of your accomplishment. The local community has placed a lot of faith and trust in you\, not just the office. \nAs you take on this important role\, it’s important to understand the immense responsibility that comes with being sheriff. No other unelected official has a greater impact on the safety and security of your community. Here’s something you might not know: there are over 550 Missouri statutes directly referencing the “sheriff\,” with an additional 35 using the phrase “chief law enforcement officer” and 19 using “jailer” – all pointing to you.  And that’s not all!  There are over 122 statutes that apply when you act as county coroner\, and another 134 dealing with public governmental agency records.  Federal laws add another layer of complexity\, covering employment and discrimination issues\, jail operations\, and inmate rights. \nTo help new sheriffs like yourself hit the ground running\, the Missouri Sheriffs’ Association offers a two-week “New Sheriffs’ School” every four years.  This year’s program is scheduled for two separate sessions at the Margaritaville Lake Resort in Osage Beach\, MO. The first session will run from December 9th through 13th\, and the second session will follow from December 16th through 19th. \nThis intensive training is designed to equip you with the need-to-know information for success. It’s also a fantastic opportunity to network with fellow new sheriffs and learn from seasoned veterans who are there to mentor and support you in any way they can. \nFor more information\, contact Jeanne Merritt at 573-529-6900 or email. \nSincerely\, \nKevin Merritt\nExecutive Director \n  \nDOWNLOAD ATTENDEE PACKET \nREGISTRATION DEADLINE: NOVEMBER 10\, 2024 \n  \nLODGING INFORMATION:\nMargaritaville Lake Resort\n$109.00 room rate + taxes\n800-826-8272\n \nLINK FOR WEEK 1 – USE CODE: NEWS \nhttps://irm.margaritavilleresortlakeoftheozarks.com/irmng/index.html?g=NEWS \n  \nLINK FOR WEEK 1 – USE CODE: NEW2 \nhttps://irm.margaritavilleresortlakeoftheozarks.com/irmng/index.html?g=NEW2 \n494 Tan Tar A Drive\nOsage Beach\, MO 65065

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Police Militarization and its Effect on Constitutional Policing
DESCRIPTION:POST #26284\n\n\nSome 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. \nThis 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. \nTOPICS INCLUDE:\n• History of Police Militarization\n• The Perception of the Militarization of Police\n• Does Militarizing Local Police Reduce Crime\n• Why American Police Officers Look Like Soldiers\n• Procedural Justice and Building a Guardian Mindset\n• Balancing Utilization of Adequate Safety Equipment With Serving the Community \nPOST CREDIT: 2 Hours Technical Studies \nCOST: FREE \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar. \nView System Requirements \n\n  \nREGISTER FOR WEBINAR
