  Natalie Johnson will present: Keys to High Performance Stress

  
  

  Although stress is a predominant factor in all our lives, research has revealed that the traditional way we view stress isn’t helpful and contributes to burnout. Science suggests that we can actually use our stress to foster performance, better connect with those that matter, and even extend our life. This training will focus on the updated science of stress and how we can utilize stress as a true superpower. Participants will leave with several strategies they can use immediately in their work and home life.

  
  

  Lt. Dainty will be presenting the below case study:

  
  

  On 6/30/23, Highlands County Sheriff’s Office, attempted a motor vehicle stop which resulted in a vehicle pursuit. During the pursuit, 911 calls were received from within the vehicle and an occupant advised she was being held at gunpoint by the other vehicle occupant. The pursuit continued into Polk County where the vehicle ultimately became disabled in an orange grove. Polk County Sheriff’s Office SWAT and CNT were activated, and CNT assumed control of the negotiation.

  Region 5 FAHN Training Event:  Crisis Management With Individuals With Autism
  

  Date:  Thursday, November 9, 2023

  Time:  0800 hrs -1700 hrs 

  
  

  Presented by:  Diana Zeitz, Officer, Jupiter Police Department

  
  

  Hosted by:   Det. Steve Jacobsen, Pinellas County Sheriff's Office / FAHN Region 5 Director

  
  

  Location:  Pinellas County Sheriff's Office, 10750 Ulmerton Road, Largo, FL 33778

  
  

  Course Description:

  
  

  Individuals with Austim interact with Law Enforcement everyday and are often misunderstood, or mislabeled as difficult and uncooperative. It is important for LEOs to be able to identify an individual who falls on the spectrum of Austim, and then break those communication barriers to obtain necessary information.

  
  

  We will build on the identification markers of Austim, and how patience is key when communicating with these individuals. Participants will be provided available resources to LEOs and engage in some practical exercises to hone learned skills.

  persons who are armed, barricaded, and in crisis.

  You’ll leave the course with an understanding of

  modern disengagement and re-engagement

  tactics, the specific ways to avoid liability, and

  a collection of the best non-criminal barricade

  policies from police agencies all around the

  country.

  
  

  This course breaks down the relevant laws that

  govern liability, “special relationships”, and the

  “public duty doctrine”. Through dramatic bodycam

  debriefs of actual non-criminal barricade incidents,

  you will learn why some officers were found liable

  and others were not. You will walk away with

  modern tactics your agency can use to both limit

  liability and prevent violent confrontations.
