Hate Crime Prevention & Training
In response to a growing concern about bias crime,
Congress recently enacted The Campus Hate Crimes
Right to Know Act, In addition to the Hate Crimes
Statistics Act, this legislation requires that the
Attorney General establish guidelines and collect
as part of the UCR Uniform Crime Report data and
information "about hate crimes that manifest
evidence of prejudice based on race,religion,sexual
orientation, or ethnicity." Because the accuracy
and uniformity of the data collected will be only
as good as the reporters; Training for campus police
and security personnel to identify, respond, and
report on hate crimes is critical. Bias crime and
incident identification training is not readily
available at the local, state, or federal levels.
Citing the uniqueness of bias crime and it's effect
on the collage and or university community: it is
apparent that training is needed to prepare campus
police and security personnel to properly distinguish
between bias incidents and hate crimes.
Recognizing the magnitude of complying with this
legislation, In 2001 NPSLC was chosen by the International
Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators
IACLEA to develop and institute Hate Crime Prevention
Training and Programs for their member Universities
nationwide. As their premiere representative in
this highly visible and important role, NPSLC designed
and executed a well received program that reached
thousands of officers throughout North America.
Special emphasis was provided in developing a collection
approach which exceeds merely capturing data and
information, but also helps the campus community
to develop strategies to reduce their incidences.
Our programs can be designed for front-line officers,
train-the-trainer, and or for supervisory personnel.

Crimes training programs, please contact us.
