LAPS Trains Liberian Police Recruits on Post Election Violence Prevention using MHPSS interventions

Based on the collaborative relationship with the Liberia National Police, the authorities of the National Police Training Academy of Liberia requested LAPS to implement a one-day training with the new police recruits.


By LAPS Communication Team


As a result, LAPS planned, organized, and facilitated a day of training for about 320 new police recruits who were undergoing training at the police training academy on mental health and psychosocial support-related topics. The training was facilitated in batches of two separate sessions (morning and afternoon sessions). The training provided knowledge about vicarious/secondary trauma and its effects, as well as skills to manage daily law enforcement-related stressors during the upcoming elections and their overall self-care/well-being.
