We are pleased to announce the release of two IACP resources to support your efforts to address domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking. These resources can be found on the IACP's Identifying and Preventing Gender Bias in Law Enforcement Response in Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence webpage<http://www.theiacp.org/Gender-bias>, however the links below will take you directly to the document.

  *   Webinar: The Critical Need for Law Enforcement Agencies to Identify Gender Bias in Responses to Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence is the first in the IACP's Balancing the Scales of Justice educational webinar series. Balancing the Scales of Justice outlines the concept of gender bias and provides law enforcement with key information on understanding, identifying, addressing, and preventing effects of gender bias on their agency's readiness and capacity to effectively respond to the crimes of sexual assault and domestic violence; subsequent webinars will take a deeper look at understanding biases and strategies to address and prevent the impact of gender bias on successful responses to sexual and domestic violence.

  *   Flyer: Addressing and Preventing Gender Bias: Responses to Reports of Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, and Stalking is an infographic-style educational supplement. While no single page can reflect the full complexity of topics like biases, trauma, and sexual and domestic violence, this tool presents key definitions, statistics, and strategies as context for and accompaniment to discussions, meetings, and trainings.
