On March 20th we will hear from Sgt. Justin Saffar, the supervisor of the Behavioral Assessment and Adminsitrative Unit, Montgomery County Police Department. The unit is responsible for handling threats to the public including school threats, bomb threats, and threats to politicians. The team is also responsible for finding creative ways of mitigating mental health consumers who pose a danger to law enforcement or the community. If ofor any reason Montgomery County Public School evening activities are cancelled, the MCCAAA meeting for that evening is cancelled.
The MCCAAA has created this initiative to give a care package to each officer in the Montgomery County Police Department. Using our donations we purchase items that officers may need in their day to day work, pack bags and drop them off to the officers at their district stations. So far we have given over 200 officers a care package including the Germantown and Bethesda districts. If you would like to participate in this program, please Contact Us.
The Montgomery County, Maryland Citizen Academy (CA) began in 1994 and is an extension of the Department's community policing efforts. Citizen Academy participants learn how the police department works, and gain a better understanding of what the department does and what is required for police officers to effectively perform their duties. Those interested in learning more about the Montgomery County Citizens Academy and applying for future sessions may contact Sergeant John Mullaney at 240-773-6900. For more, Sgt. Mullaney gives us an update on page 7 in the MCCAAA Informant.
