MVPDx is Coming Soon!

Post Date:07/12/2023 2:21 p.m.
MVPDx: Cohort 5 is coming soon!
 
We would love for you to join us.
 
What is MVPDx? The goal of this community program is to foster productive dialogue with various community members around policing in Mountain View, the broader narrative of policing in America, and how together we can achieve best practices locally to not only keep our residents safe now, but to also work in collaboration on what policing may look like here in the future.
 
This year, while topics for each session are TBD, some areas we will be covering include: homelessness, K9s, use of force, de-escalation, bias and de-certification, and education and recruitment, among others. There will also be two Saturday scenario days where cohort members receive not just hands-on training experiences, they also get to spend quality time with personnel, delving into conversations about the people who wear the badge and their life beyond it.
 
Dates for Cohort 5 are as follows:
  • Wednesday, Aug. 23
  • Wednesday, Aug. 30
  • Wednesday, Sept. 6
  • Saturday, Sept. 9
  • Wednesday, Sept. 13
  • Wednesday, Sept. 20
  • Saturday, Sept. 23
  • Wednesday, Sept. 27
*All Wednesday sessions will be 6 pm to 9 pm with a half hour break allotted. Saturday session times are TBD.*
