The department hosted a
Diversity and Inclusion for Law
Enforcement training session
in coordination with the Center
for Public Safety and Justice at
the University of Illinois and the
Community Oriented Policing
Services (COPS).
The department formed a partnership with the Arlington Independent
School District (AISD) and My Health My Resources (MHMR) and launched a
Multidisciplinary Threat Assessment Team (MTAT). The main goal of the
MTAT is to promote a safe school environment by identifying at-risk students
who may present a public safety concern, assess their risk for engaging in
violence or other harmful activities, and develop intervention strategies to assist
them in being productive students.
The Honor Guard unveiled a new contemporary uniform replacing the
nostalgic dress uniform that had been worn for decades. This new change
adds a modern style and embraces the current department patch with
an “Honor Guard” rocker above the patch. The Honor Guard, formally
established in 1986, preserves the historic traditions and provides officers
at ceremonial events.
