Community oriented policing is a great term.

00:00:07.401 --> 00:00:12.167
But what it really means is to be able to have two-way communication

00:00:12.167 --> 00:00:16.522
with the people that you work with and the people that you serve.

00:00:16.522 --> 00:00:20.701
And I think that again, in this very large organization,

00:00:20.701 --> 00:00:23.983
those kinds of community oriented people,

00:00:23.983 --> 00:00:27.234
those people that can hold a conversation and talk.

00:00:27.234 --> 00:00:30.052
You know, we have a lot of young people

00:00:30.052 --> 00:00:35.283
and a lot of highly technologically capable young people.

00:00:35.283 --> 00:00:38.348
But we also need to make sure that they have the skills,

00:00:38.348 --> 00:00:42.280
the verbal communication skills, the ability to interact

00:00:42.280 --> 00:00:47.388
and that's something that as we hire an additional 2,000 CBPOs,

00:00:47.388 --> 00:00:51.407
we have to make sure that we're instilling that in them also.
