ALERRT Training
ALERRT (Advanced Law Enforcement Rapid Response Training) provides law enforcement officers with the essential skills to respond effectively to active shooter incidents and high-risk situations.
Under Sheriff Eric Garza's leadership in 2022, the implementation of ALERRT training for sheriff deputies began, bringing forth significant benefits for both the deputies and the community they serve. By providing this specialized training, Sheriff Garza ensures that deputies are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to effectively respond to active shooter incidents and high-risk situations. This enhances their ability to assess threats swiftly, make critical decisions, and protect lives. Moreover, ALERRT training promotes collaboration among deputies, fosters teamwork, and improves overall readiness within the department. The community benefits from this initiative as it leads to a more proactive and coordinated response to emergencies, thereby enhancing public safety and instilling a sense of trust and confidence in law enforcement's capabilities.
