Social media and an in- crease in overall visibility of ofﬁ cers’ actions place them under increased scrutiny, and may have fueled disconnect between law enforcement and the communities they protect. According to a Gal- lup survey, only 58 percent of whites and 29 percent of African Americans trust po- lice ofﬁ cers, up slightly from the lowest point it reached in 2015. Recent incidents with minorities and limited com- munity presence may con- tribute to the lack of trust. Understanding the ef- forts police departments un- dertake to prevent crime is especially important as the United States Congress in 2009 designated March as National Criminal Justice Month. The month is meant to promote societal aware- ness of the causes and conse- quences of crime and better help civilians understand the strategies to prevent and re- spond to it. Many experts be- lieve a return to community- oriented policing (COP) and an emphasis on soft skills for ofﬁ cers could help police departments make strides to- ward rebuilding community trust. Daniel Barry is one expert, who says police de- partments need to make a shift in philosophies. Barry is the criminal justice chair for the University of Phoe- nix College of Security and Criminal Justice Las Vegas Campus and spent 30 years as police captain for the Las 2015 883 HARLEY DAVIDSON SPORTSTER 123K miles, good luxury transportation. $2,500 541-902-9111 1500 mi, Full D&D exhaust sys, Extended forward controls, New leather Harley Davidson seat. $8,500 OBO 210-379-5945 Lv. mess. 96 DODGE DAKOTA Cab & 1/2, V8, 2WD, good cond.

In fact, ofﬁ cers with two- or four- year degrees used physical or verbal force 56 percent of the time when making an arrest, compared to 68 percent for those with only a high school education. Moreover, police de- partments should focus on educating ofﬁ cers on tech- nology and encouraging so- cial media use. According to a Pew Research survey, 44 percent of ofﬁ cers rated their agencies use of social media as “fair,” and fewer than one in 10 rated it as “excellent.” Despite a lack of understand- ing and budget cut restraints, social media can be a help- ful tool to enhance a depart- ment’s reputation and quick- ly spread information. University of Phoenix offers degrees and certiﬁ - cates that focus on security, public administration and criminal justice that teach the necessary hard and soft skills to pursue a career in criminal justice. Students learn how to make a difference in their communities, protect people and contribute to improving society.

CCB#203797 ERVICES (No Commercial Vehicles) Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. He and other current and former Las Ve- gas ofﬁ cers started the Police Athletic League to help ofﬁ - cers and youths form a bond through sports. Barry says initiatives like these go a long way in improving com- munity relations. “People need to under- stand that COP and soft skills are a philosophy, not a style of policing,” Barry said. “We live in a more connected, more exposed world. Police departments need to embrace efforts to be more involved with the communities they serve.” Police departments are in fact transitioning back to a COP philosophy. Traditional policing has historically tak- en a reactionary approach, responding to crime after it occurs, which could make individuals feel unsafe. With COP, ofﬁ cers are proactively engaged with community members to address immedi- ate concerns and stop crime before it occurs. Programs such as D.A.R.E. and bike patrols were examples of successful past COP initia- tives. Today, COP initiatives include expanding social me- dia presence and becoming more active in community projects. Soft skills and training on how to best de-escalate a situation are key focuses for police departments. Much like how ofﬁ cers are ex- pected to undergo ﬁ rearms training, teaching soft skills like interpersonal commu- nication and critical think- ing must also be prioritized. 999 ✦ PUBLIC NOTICES REQUEST FOR BIDS The Siuslaw Public Library District is requesting proposals from qualified contractors for the replacement of the roof of the library building located at 1460 9th Street, Florence, Ore- gon.
