Mount St. Mary's University is partnering with the Frederick County Sheriff's Office on People with Intellectual Disabilities and the Criminal Justice System, an innovative training program for law enforcement officers offering best practices on handling incidents involving individuals with intellectual disabilities.
"We have identified a need for this training in law enforcement and public safety, and I am very pleased to be partnering with Mount St. Mary's University to offer this curriculum," said Sheriff Charles A. Jenkins. "This block of training could very well be the model for every agency in the State of Maryland."
