Belton Police to Receive Training in Excessive Force Intervention
Police departments across the nation have been under increased scrutiny in recent years, and many are endeavoring to provide officers with the additional training and tools they need to protect and serve their communities while fostering trust and goodwill with the people.
The Belton Police Department s latest effort to accomplish this is participation in a nationwide training initiative called the Active Bystandership for Law Enforcement (ABLE) Project.
ABLE, developed by Georgetown University Law’s Innovative Policing Program and approved by national civil rights and law enforcement agencies, is designed to provide officers with intervention strategies they can use if a fellow officer uses excessive force. Organizers say the project is evidence-based and has been field-tested, and every Belton PD officer will receive 8 hours of what they call active bystandership education training.
