Interaction with Ukrainian police officers
Based on their observations during Phase I and on the recommendations of their agencies, the Crimean hosts proposed training topics for the two-week Phase II training program. The program was a mix of roundtable discussions, presentations, seminars, site visits and cultural activities. The focus of the sessions included such topics as Philosophy of Community Policing, In-School Crime Prevention, Police-Community Collaboration, Police-Media Relations, Domestic Violence Response, Ethics in Law Enforcement, Standards of Recruiting and Training, and Community and Traffic Safety.

Officer Joel Dhein and Officer Chuck Fletcher demonstrate how police positively interact with children.
