Copwatch College
In recent years, we developed a series of Copwatch trainings ranging from know-your-rights when stopped by the police, to best practices while cop-watching, to how to safely and effectively respond to police shootings and other critical incidents involving the police.

Trainings include:
1. Know your rights when stopped by the police
2. Copwatching (best practices)
3. First responders (deploying to critical incidents involving the police)
4. Conducting people’s investigations

If you would like us to come to your educational institution – whether it be a public school or a university campus – we’d love to come to your classroom.
