| Description: |
The Sandra Bland Act, promulgated by the Texas State Legislature on September 1, 2018, directed the Texas Commission on Jail Standards to require corrections officers to complete an 8-hour education and training program on de-escalation and crisis intervention techniques. Moreover, the Texas sheriffs initiated an effort to provide Texas jailers a 40-hour CIT course delivered by their own-trained trainers. A coalition of numerous entities, including NIC, were involved in the development of these curricula. The state designated training site for this project is the residential-style academy at CMIT, University of Sam Houston.
