EBRSO community event
BATON ROUGE, LA (FOX44) — People living near the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office Kleinpeter substation got a chance to chat and grill with members of the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office Saturday.
The Sheriff's Office gave people chance to see swat unit equipment and offered tours of the sheriff's office's mobile command center.
Families also got a chance to learn about the DARE program and community policing.
The deputies grilled up burgers and talked with kids.
The goal of the event is to help people see the deputies as a part of the community. The event also helps get kids to feel comfortable talking to deputies.

This is a good start. But to sustain community-oriented policing is another thing. For answers see my new book, “Arrested Development: A Veteran Police Chief Sounds Off About Protest, Racism, Corruption and the Seven Steps Necessary to Improve Our Nation’s Police” (Amazon.com) and visit my blog at http://improvingpolice.wordpress.com where I discuss even more issues facing those who police a democracy and how improvement can occur and be sustained!
