Enhancing Police Interactions with the Laramie, WY Community

An award-winning and interactive program: Created to strengthen police and community relationships

This program is customized for the Laramie, WY community

Together police and Laramie residents will do the following:

  • Appreciate the power of personal stories from community members and police to gain insight into their experiences

  • Recognize hot buttons and other obstacles that interfere with building relationships between law enforcement and community members

  • Listen for and respect the emotional content in what community members express and develop an understanding of what police officers experience

  • Use a conflict resolution process to find common ground in dealing with an issue that would otherwise lead to continuing tension

  • Acquire a toolbox of ways to improve interpersonal communication by decreasing defensiveness, with particular attention to tone of voice and body language

  • Help increase safety, inclusivity, and belonging in the community of Laramie, WY

  • This is an ongoing process and participants must be willing to engage with the ongoing work that this workshop starts
