24-hour SAFVIC

SAFVIC consists of a comprehensive curriculum developed with the assistance of a curriculum committee composed of experts from law enforcement, prosecution and victim services. The curriculum covers crucial aspects for law enforcement's response to these crimes, as well as the creation and use of community-based resources to assist law enforcement's efforts. This curriculum is broken down into segments that are meant to provide a consistent transition through the material. The curriculum was developed around a three-day or 24 credit hour frame. It is also available in stand alone 1-day/8 credit hour modules. The program will use a network of certified trainers to deliver the training on a local basis, thus enabling more officers the access to this very important training.
