In Connecticut, officers from eight departments came together for no-cost, multi-day training focused on de-escalation, active shooter response, and critical incident management. Made possible by community support, this training equips officers with the tools they need to protect and serve—especially in moments that matter most.

Community First Project recently provided advanced tactical training to 46 members of the Worcester Police Department’s part-time SWAT team. Over two three-day sessions, officers trained in complex environments—like a mock triple-decker apartment and a vacant hotel—progressing rapidly from two-man entries to large-team clearances. Skipping range day due to their firearms proficiency, the team focused on room entries, decision-making, and communication under pressure. Even veteran officers called it some of the most valuable training of their careers.

The recent tactical training with Fort Worth Police Department brought together officers from various units to sharpen their skills in high-pressure, real-world scenarios. From live-fire drills to complex room clearances and multi-floor movements, officers worked in both small teams and full-unit simulations to improve response times, coordination, and tactical decision-making.

Using realistic scenario-based exercises, including live role players and simulated ammunition, the C1P team conducted over a dozen simulated exercises training over Utah police officers.

Using realistic scenario-based exercises, including live role players and simulated ammunition, the BFS team conducted over a dozen simulated exercises training over 50 Florida police officers.
