APPROXIMATELY 20% OF THE CITY OF CONCORD POPULATION IS HISPANIC. WHILE THERE IS REGULAR COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT AND THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY, THE RELATIONSHIP CONTINUES TO SUFFER FROM LANGUAGE BARRIERS, CULTURAL DIFFERENCES, UNREPORTED CRIME, AND MISUNDERSTANDINGS. THE PURPOSE OF THIS CLASS IS TO CHALLENGE MEMBERS OF THE DEPARTMENT AND MEMBERS OF THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY TO SUSPEND ASSUMPTIONS AND CONSIDER NEW PERSPECTIVES OF EACH OTHER. THIS WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH FACILITATED STU DENT DIALOGUE WITH A PANEL OF PERSONS FROM THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY. |
