Leveraging Body-Worn Camera (and Original) Video to Enhance Transparency, Engage the Community, and Beef up Recruitment Efforts

Most law enforcement agencies now have body-worn cameras (BWC), and many agencies already release BWC video in critical incidents. But how do you mine the vast stores of BWC video to make your agency shine? This session will include practical training on how to get the most out of BWC video and when and how to create original videos featuring BWC to enhance transparency and engage the community. Also of great importance to so many agencies are the recruiting efforts that are underway to fill open vacancies and increase the number of women through the 30x30 Initiative. BWC video can be an effective tool in those efforts as well. This informative session will include a “how to” on incorporating BWC into a communications plan.
