Lawrence Police Officers are being trained this week on the best way to handle children who are exposed to trauma. The training is called “Handle with Care,” and involves School Resource Officers, Lawrence Public Schools, and the Douglas County advocacy group, DCCCA. The training shows officers how to notify schools when a child is encountered at the scene of a traumatic event. A simple private message will be sent to the child’s school. The message has the child’s name, grade, and “Handle with Care.”
