Building a Brighter Future, Today
Unity for all of Harris County
Safer Communities, More Accountability
PUBLIC SAFETY
Expansion of the Contract Deputy Program will allow us to provide law enforcement services to more citizens in our Precinct 5 communities. Expanding this program will significantly ensure faster response times to all incidents and increase the level of service we can provide to the residents we serve.
I will also work with surrounding law enforcement agencies to provide a more efficient and effective way of responding to and reporting incidents to ensure that the public is not waiting for service for over 30 minutes. I will work to create a DWI task force and a Crime Reduction Unit to combat safer roadways and improve visibility in high crime areas.
TRAINING
Investing and increasing training requirements is imperative to better develop our deputies in responding to potentially hostile incidents. Expanding on active shooter training and de-escalation techniques is often the key to resolving issues quickly. Teaching our deputies how to respond to challenging behavior in the safest, most efficient way possible for the good of the deputies and the citizens we serve.
Designing a mentorship program that would better train deputies and supervisors in the different departments within the agency. Personnel would receive proper resources and education to help accurately speed up ongoing cases for better solvability.
DEVELOPING TRUST
The agency will be as diverse as the community, and this diversity will extend not just to our deputies but also to our supervisor and command staff. I will expand on the Coffee with a Cop program by meeting monthly with community members to strengthen law enforcement and citizen relations.
Citizen Police Academy and Police Explorers to develop to engage students in various topics designed to foster relationships, trust, and understanding between officers and teens. Participants will have an opportunity to gain an understanding of police operations through specialized presentations and hands-on activities.
