president mazzucco: commissioner chan? commissioner chan: that you for your report. it is important to have these resources. in an imaginary world, that we will hopefully make happen, what staff would you like? specifically what type of education, qualification, certification would you want? clinicians, psychologists, etc.? >> having a good psychologist on-site would keep people from walking through the door, and that is a research based truth. in koran school, i have my masters and johnson psychology, and i did some research on that. officers are most likely to talk to other officers burst above because the trust factor, and that is one of the reasons why they will not seek out what is available to them. they will seek out of reserves to have been there, done that, and they trust. it is a subculture. there are several clinicians, which i talked about before, who are also police of a service to our ph.d., and those officers they trust, and these are also the ones that we spoke to the chief about putting them on board as part of the debriefing process, so that would b

commissioner chan? commissioner chan: i actually agree with everything you just said, and i am looking at the calendar. president mazzucco: sergeant? >> i have been with the department for 25 years in the behavioral science department. if i can go over what it does, it is a confidential unit which provides psychological support to members and their family. we provide referrals to a group of licensed police specialty providers. the train themselves with a simulator. they are licensed clinicians who are committed to dealing with police of a sears and their families to make sure that they are culturally competent in law enforcement issues. the chain of command, the impact, we try to minimize the impact by a conducting it debriefings post incident, such as officer-involved shootings, but not only those but any incident that could suck allegedly impact an officer, such as witnessing a death or a multiple casualty incident, a fire, anything involving children, which can be dramatic, even close call situations

commissioner chan: thank you. i love seeing the great work you do enter office does and seeing the community ambassadors here tonight. the variety of languages that are represented, you should be proud. and of the service you dedicated. i will ask a couple questions. i was asked about the hours of the program, what shifts are the out, if a community member would like to get an ambassador to work with them, how do they contact them in off hours, and how do we ensure the safety of the embassadors because they're out there on these high traffic sounds to ensure they are safe and what collaboration has there been with the police department outside the training and very stylish uniforms? i am sure there is a time to collaborate with the police department. lastly, with a referral to community-based services, you mentioned connecting communities to the city services which is great. i am glad to see the city id card in there. i'm wondering if there is referrals to the nonprofit community-based services like legal services

commissioner chan: october 5? >> do we agree, october 5? >> commissioner chan: language access. also wanted to ask for -- to do a deeper presentation about the status of any pending general orders and policy proposals. we received that packet but we need time to ask questions and for us to highlight what our priorities are in terms of d go's. twe need to give the department time to put that together? i wondered if we want to schedule that for october or september. >> we do not have much scheduled for october. we have a few items for september. it might be a good thing to do the week after the lep presentation or a week after. maybe the 12th? commissioner chan: thank you. president mazzucco: commissioner dejesus. commissioner dejesus: i assume we're going to look into this and you will report back. supervisors may be looking at legislation and we need to be in the forefront in terms of leadership. i wonder if you are reporting back next week or the following week on the resolutions that were in portland and how do we go forward? >> we contacted poor land in an effort to find out

>> i think commissioner chan and i have the same thing on our minds at the moment. we completed the training earlier this week. i t as a post program. commissioner marshall: i won't ask what your spurs were -- scores were. >> we did get valuable feedback and we recommended that all commissioners attend this training. we found it very valuable. one of the main aspects of this, when we are looking at policy issues or revealing discipline cases, it helps to have any least just little bit of and walked in their shoes kind of experience. and albeit in a very small way, it did give us that in terms of response timing, procedures following procedures, the human reaction in terms of what you see and what you hear under intense circumstances, and it was insightful. and very helpful.

commissioner chan: i agree. i appreciated the chance to go through that training. there were high-ranking members of the department of their helping us understand the fourth options trading. the computer simulation was quite helpful. i could see that there was one involving a woman hallucinating holding a knife, one that looks like a veteran trying to commit suicide by cops. those are perfect scenarios we can use. i can see exactly where the escalation if it's there, because among the various options available at the time, the extended range, there is a whole of verbal and the escalation component in the eye could see him in there and expanding upon the tools available to officers in dealing with those types of situations and other ones that are very related. no one was injured and i did not injure anyone else, which was good news. commissioner marshall: i remember when i did it. i of think it has changed, but i will do it again. anything else under item 2d? yes, we move to 2d. >> scheduling of items for future commission meetings. commissioner marshall: any announ

commissioner chan, anything about secure communities? >> commissioner chan: i have a pending question for the folks who put together this audit. statistics on immigration do not match the department pose a statistics. the level one offenses are the more serious. our matches are higher. quite a bit higher for this county. i ask that this be continued and they put on calendar at a later point once we clarify this -- and put on calendar at a later point once we cannot -- clarify. commissioner kingsley: i would also request that when this report is put together, i liked seeing the term definitions. in addition to the term definitions that are included in the report, if some keys would be provided for some of the abbreviations under resolution no. 2a, that would be terrific. i can guess at some of them but not others. that would be appreciated. president mazzucco: we will move that to a calendar and future items -- to the calendar in future items. i would like to thank the commissioners for their hard work. we had a backlog and now the backlo

commissioner chan: thank you. i have two more questions. i wanted to ask about the guidelines for plainclothes officers. can you tell us more about that? i know the stories about plainclothes officers in some of these residential hotels -- that made the news earlier this year. >> we have training every wednesday for plainclothes officers. we start off with basically updates on expectations with regard to character and integrity. we brought back the lieutenant who used to train that class and was the guru of plainclothes officers for a long time. i think commissioner dejesus remembers. the officers taken seriously because of his standing. we used to do weekly training. now it is i think the last wednesday. the last wednesday of the month, ongoing training. but there is also academy training on a 40-hour class. it might have been a 24-hour class. it established a minimum of training on expectations in plain clothes. the are afforded interview training, street survival training, etc. again, this training, where it was before -- it would be con
