3/2/26 - Deputies and officers teach, attend Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training   
  
Last week, the Lane County Regional Crisis Intervention Team hosted a 40-hour Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training at the Springfield Police Department and Hillview Baptist Church in Springfield. This regional training is offered to local law enforcement agencies in Lane County.   
  
The Regional Crisis Intervention Team is made up of coordinators from the Lane County Sheriff’s Office, the Eugene Police Department, and the Springfield Police Department. The team is assisted by a steering committee made up of stakeholders in the local mental health community.    
  
The 31 attendees included deputies, dispatchers, and officers assigned to various roles from the Lane County Sheriff’s Office, Springfield Police Department, Eugene Police Department, Oakridge Police Department, Cottage Grove Police Department, and Lane Transit District.   
  
CIT Training consists of classroom instruction to educate participants about mental health, addiction, de-escalation, and alternatives to incarceration. The curriculum includes specific lessons about local resources and programs, commonly encountered mental health conditions, tactical communication strategies, and presentations from community members with lived, first-hand mental health experiences.   
  
The training includes discussions specific to unique communities law enforcement officers may encounter, such as military veterans, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and developmentally disabled individuals. Near the end of the week of training, attendees participate in scenario training based off of real situations. Finally, the training concludes with a segment on officer resilience and mental wellness.   
  
This training provides a solid foundation for local law enforcement to call upon when approaching persons in crisis and to help community members receive the best outcome possible. Featured News by Lane County Sheriff

We’re proud to share that in January, we received a SolSmart Bronze designation through the national Energy Ready Program! 🌞  
  
This recognition highlights the steps we’ve taken to make it easier for residents and businesses to install solar, reduce barriers in our permitting process, and support our goal of achieving net zero emissions by 2050.  
  
Solar-friendly policies, streamlined online permitting, and clear application checklists are just a few of the ways we’re supporting clean energy locally.
