Summary

"With the financial assistance of Human Resources and Social Development Canada, the CACP has developed police training materials to increase police effectiveness in communicating with all of those who come into contact with the law: victims of crime, suspects, complainants, witnesses, and the general public. The CACP also encourages police and their organizations to support literacy initiatives in their communities."--cover.
