Police Training Reform: Focus on De-Escalation and Community Safety.

This law mandates the creation of a new, standardized scenario-based training curriculum for law enforcement personnel across the country. The training emphasizes de-escalation techniques, crisis intervention, and improving community-police relations through realistic simulations. A grant program will be established to help state and local police departments fund and implement this improved training methodology.
Key points
Requires the Attorney General to develop a national curriculum for police training using live-action simulations and role-playing to replicate real-life scenarios.
Training must cover de-escalation, crisis intervention, critical decision-making, and appropriate use of force, aiming to reduce unnecessary force.
Establishes a grant program to assist law enforcement agencies in accessing the training, funded by existing, unobligated Department of Justice funds.
