The Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) is pleased to partner with Dr. John More, CEO of Response Law, LLC, to offer an opportunity to attend a half-day workshop titled “Hot Topics: Recognizing Signs and Symptoms of Students at Risk of Hate Behavior or Hate Group Recruitment: The Balancing of First Amendment Rights vs. School Disruption.” These informative and engaging, scenario-based, 3-hour sessions provide school administrators, security, and school resource officers with effective techniques and messaging methods to proactively combat and manage what have become the “hot button” issues that directly affect student physical and mental health, some of which have reached epidemic proportions, and have had a profound impact on the education process and atmosphere. Please click here for details and registration for the Hot Topics afternoon session of "Vaping: Dangers, Searches, and Policy Enforcement."
This training is being offered at no cost to K-12 school administrators, central office personnel, school security officers, and law enforcement serving in schools.
Law enforcement officers serving in schools and school security officers who complete this training are eligible to receive partial in-service credit hours.
There is no fee to attend this workshop and all training materials will be provided for registrants.
Participants are responsible for their transportation, meals, and lodging arrangements and expenses.
