Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement (ARIDE) Program; 2nd day of 2 day sign-up event, Sponsored by Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility (FAAR) and Lyft

ARIDE is intended to bridge the gap between the Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) and the Drug Evaluation and Classification (DEC/DRE) programs by providing officers with general knowledge related to drug impairment and by promoting the use of DREs in states that have the DEC program. The ARIDE program stresses the importance of the signs and symptoms of the seven drug categories. This course will train law enforcement officers to observe, identify, and articulate the signs of impairment related to drugs, alcohol, or a combination of both, in order to reduce the number of impaired driving incidents as well as crashes which result in serious injuries and fatalities. This course will educate other criminal justice professionals (prosecutors, toxicologists, judges, etc.) to understand the signs of impairment related to drugs, alcohol, or a combination of both, to enable them to effectively work with law enforcement in order to reduce the number of impaired driving incidents as well as crashes which result in serious injuries and fatalities. All participants must be SFST proficient, must pass SFST proficiency demonstration at time of entry into class, and complete the ARIDE registration form.

Seminar: Use of Force in Today’s Jails: One Tool for Report Writing and Use of Force Review

The use of force is one of the leading areas of litigation in corrections. Understanding and articulating the legal requirements is critical in determining whether the force was objectively unreasonable (pretrial inmates) or was applied in a good faith effort to maintain and restore order (convicted inmates). This seminar will review the leading Supreme Court decisions in the area of use of force, focusing on the report writing instrument used by both the deputy involved in the force and also as a tool in reviewing the use of force regardless of the inmate’s status.

The trainers will deliver the courses to new and existing jailers in their regions, especially in rural areas of the state. The initiative is a tremendous collaboration with federal, state, and local partners who are all focused on providing jail professionals with the level of training to increase their effectiveness in carrying out their enormous responsibilities in jails across the state. The professional individuals of the corrections profession are united in our interest to change the way we deal with people who have mental health issues and are wrongly detained in the criminal justice system.
