HOW TO INTERACT WITH POLICE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some of us have experience with police encounters. For a deaf or hard of hearing person, these encounters can be stressful.<\/p>\n

That is why we will be hosting a workshop to ensure better communication, support, and understanding. With special thanks to the Dallas Police Department, a police officer will be there to present with us.<\/p>\n

Refresh on the ADA!<\/p>\n

Interactive activity with the Police Officer!<\/p>\n

Mock scenarios on various settings where the interaction could be short.<\/p>\n

We welcome Officer Taylor from the Dallas Police Department who will be on-hands!<\/p>\n
