Workshops

Training to effectively use and improve the text service would be necessary, to make sure it functioned to the best of its ability. Workshops would be held throughout cities and the whole state, to train police officers and affiliated institutions on the use of radio equipment. IT Personnel would also be trained to effectively deal with community members, and previous victims of violent crime in particular. Networking between disparate departments in rural and urban areas of Virginia, specifically Southern Virginia and far-flung areas in similar parts of the state would be mandatory to provide safety for all individuals of different communities. Workshops would also provide individuals, training to use the text service, with hard copies of every rule book or documentation with every website specific to that states’ hospitals, police departments, and statutes, including but not limited to local ordinances. These resources would be provided to those who have trouble accessing laws specific to where they live online, to make them easier to be discussed.

                Webinars would also be conducted between different departments throughout the state on how they can improve community relations and discussions regarding different department heads traveling to different departments than those in their area. This would allow them to relate to communities different from their own, and relate better to their own as well. Media kits provided during workshops, would consist of promotional flyers highlighting benefits of the text service, press releases, biographies of organizational leaders, and press office contact information, so that the public can be consistently updated.
