Encounters with individuals experiencing schizoaffective disorder can be challenging if officers are not prepared. Certain conditions can affect how someone understands instructions or responds in high-stress situations, making de-escalation skills essential.

Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training helps officers:
• Recognize signs of mental health challenges
• Communicate clearly and calmly
• Respond safely and effectively
• Build trust and positive interactions within the community

At Clinical & Forensic Associates (CFA), we provide officers with the tools and knowledge to handle complex situations with confidence, clarity, and compassion.

Trust is the foundation of safe, resilient communities—and CIT (Crisis Intervention Team) training helps officers build it every day.

By learning to recognize and respond to mental health crises, officers can de-escalate tense situations, reduce unnecessary use of force, and create safer outcomes for both the public and themselves.

CIT training isn’t just about skills—it’s about connection and understanding. Officers who apply these strategies:
• Show empathy and professionalism during high-stress encounters
• Protect vulnerable individuals in crisis
• Strengthen relationships and trust with the community
• Reduce violence and foster safer neighborhoods

At Clinical & Forensic Associates (CFA), we partner with law enforcement to provide CIT and de-escalation training that equips officers to respond with confidence, compassion, and care—making public safety a shared effort.

Communities thrive when law enforcement and residents work together with understanding and respect.

We did it again — 40 hours of intensive Crisis Intervention Training completed. Hosted by Howard University Campus Police, HU brought together officers from American University, Georgetown University, Georgetown University Law School, the Smithsonian, and DC Housing police departments.

This training moved us closer to a more emotionally intelligent, empathetic, and skilled law enforcement community in Washington, DC — better equipped to de-escalate crises, connect with citizens in distress, and keep our campuses, facilities, and neighborhoods safe. Thank you to everyone who participated and reinforced our commitment to compassion, professionalism, and public trust.

It’s not work, when you LOVE what you!
When what you do has a major impact you call it a DIVINE ASSIGNMENT.

In today’s policing environment, understanding mental health is more than a skill—it’s a responsibility. Officers encounter individuals experiencing mental health crises every day, and knowing how to recognize and respond appropriately can save lives, reduce unnecessary use of force, and strengthen community trust.

Mental health training helps officers:
• Identify signs of mental illness or emotional distress before situations escalate
• Respond calmly and safely during high-stress encounters
• Protect their own mental well-being, improving resilience on the job
• Build stronger, more trusting relationships with the communities they serve

At Clinical & Forensic Associates (CFA), we provide officers with CIT and de-escalation training that equips them with practical tools to respond with empathy, confidence, and clarity. The result? Safer outcomes for officers, the public, and individuals in crisis.

When law enforcement understands mental health, decisions are safer, interactions are stronger, and communities thrive.

Our Vision at Clinical & Forensic Associates

At CFA, we are driven by IMPACT—Integrity, Meaningful Engagements, Promotion of Positive Change, Accountability, Collaboration, and Transformation.

We are committed to working hand-in-hand with law enforcement, providing training, de-escalation strategies, and mental health support, so that communities feel safer and society’s most vulnerable individuals are met with compassion, understanding, and the resources they need to thrive.

Together, we can build a future where care, collaboration, and public safety coexist, making a lasting impact in every community we serve.

Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose commitment to justice, dignity, and compassion continues to guide meaningful change in our communities.

Dr. King reminded us that true justice requires understanding, humanity, and responsibility for one another. These values align deeply with the work of supporting mental health, protecting vulnerable individuals, and strengthening public safety through education and compassion.

As we reflect on his legacy, we recommit ourselves to building safer, more equitable communities where care, respect, and understanding lead the way.
