The “team” concept refers to law enforcement involvement with stakeholder agencies, as well as interagency mutual assistance when appropriate.
The course will be conducted by a diverse group of law enforcement and behavioral health professionals.
During the week, students will participate in a variety of valuable exercises that will simulate auditory and 3-D visual hallucinations that individuals with a mental illness might experience. The program will also provide officers with a unique opportunity to interact with individuals who have a mental illness and their family members (primary and secondary consumers).
An essential part of the CIT course is scenario-based skills training. Officers are challenged with realistic scenarios portrayed by professional actors from Chicago and St. Louis. Scenarios may include a suicide intervention, de-escalating a violent situation, or responding to a call involving an individual experiencing paranoia. All scenarios are facilitated and evaluated by certified CIT officers.

Course Description and Lesson Purpose:
Law enforcement agencies have come under intense pressure in recent years to prioritize their efforts at “de-escalation.” We will discuss the often-challenging expectations of law enforcement professionals to gain compliance without using physical force and how oftentimes, this may not be realistic or safe. The legitimate goal of de-escalation tactics is to resolve problems with minimal harm. This distinction is critical.
The course will present law enforcement concepts and methods to support de-escalation efforts. Attendees will be provided with knowledge to apply core skills of incident stabilization, tactics and decision-making and verbal and non-verbal skills to establish contact, build rapport and create influence with difficult subjects.
Learning and Training Objectives:
Students will learn a wide variety of skills during this course including:
At the end of this training, the participant will be able to:
Articulate what ‘de-escalation’ actually means, what the objectives of de-escalation are, and in what situations de-escalation can and cannot be considered
Discuss the tactical principles of de-escalation, risk assessment and decision-making
Quickly evaluate an interaction to determine whether de-escalation efforts are reasonable to consider, tactically practical, and likely to be successful
Apply critical Force Science® concepts such as the “Response-ability Zone” and the “7 T’s De- escalation Evaluation Model” to evaluate tactics that are needed or likely to be successful in supporting a de-escalation process
Enhance their ability to make a connection, establish rapport and apply effective principles of persuasion with difficult subjects, including mentally ill subjects, through the application of the ‘Behavioral Influence Stairway Model’
Learn and apply the ‘Thought/Emotion/Behavior’ (TEB) Matrix to quickly recognize whether a subject is in ‘conflict’, ‘crisis’ or has ‘contaminated’ thinking and therefore which strategies of persuasion are likely to be the most effective
Employ specialized questions specifically designed to cognitively engage individuals in crisis and increase the likelihood of resolution that either avoids force or minimizes the amount necessary to obtain control
Better ensure that officers’ approach and control strategies maximize their response options while minimizing the potential for unnecessary emotional and/or physical escalation
Balance the desirability of trying to resolve a conflict peacefully with the need to maintain officer and public safety
Apply principles of officer self-regulation and emotional control in order to maintain rational
thinking processes
Help community members and the media better understand what realistic de-escalation entails and the challenges that subjects may present that can inhibit, if not prohibit, an officer’s ability to safely de-escalate.

Course Objective
This two-day course has been designed to meet the practical needs of the uniformed patrol officer who has supervisory responsibilities. This program will challenge the Officers-In-Charge and FTO’s to evaluate their leadership styles within the context of the patrol setting. Management of numerous patrol challenges will be discussed within a highly interactive setting. Safe and proper responses to these situations will be particularly stressed. The main goal of this course is to provide a forum in which students may evaluate their personal leadership styles as well as their responses to various patrol challenges faced by the Officers-In-Charge.
Course Content
The training will be broken into the following segments, each with their own goals. Leadership Assessment: This block will provide students with an opportunity to examine their own leadership behaviors and styles through the completion of individualized written assessment tools. Procedural Challenges: Review important considerations when handling such situations and that of an Officer in Charge, effectively responding to various patrol incidences. Initial Response to Unusual or Violent Deaths: This unit provides students with an overview of death scene management while specifically focusing on effective “first responder” actions which aid follow-up investigators. Response to Critical Incidents: This unit will outline a review of the proper response to critical incidents and the corresponding responsibilities of the Acting Patrol Officer In Charge. Case Studies: This unit provides students with opportunities to examine 18 different case studies during small group sessions. These exercises will facilitate recognition and use of appropriate decision-making processes an O.I.C. must employ in each scenario.
