This way they get to know Tukwila as part of patrol. • COPCAB Project: • Jun will draft up language for the cover paragraph and send edits for questions and send them to the group. • Ensure that translations are correct before they are live to the public. • Discussion on if there will be both online and paper surveys. • Distribution methods discussed: • Handing out paper surveys • Link in Tukwila Reporter • Facebook/Twitter/Instagram link to survey • Hazelnut • TV 21 • Ongoing feedback • Keep survey ongoing to allow the group to adjust • Try to do a quarterly "pulsing", a random survey of some community members to avoid a long 2-year gap. • Look at the tow 5 school district languages for translation.

This means that over the next five years, the state could lose almost half of its current law enforcement workforce to retirement alone. Law enforcement agencies are on the cusp of the "Silver Tsunami," a national and industry -wide phenomenon describing the mass exodus of baby boomers in the workforce. Effective succession planning and recruitment strategies are becoming more important than ever, but the law enforcement industry's current supply of qualified law enforcement officers may not meet its demand. In fact, Washington State could see a 2 to 1 ratio of outgoing to incoming officers over the coming years, creating a staffing deficit that could be detrimental to law enforcement quality and public safety. Law enforcement staffing challenges are predicted to escalate, and agencies will need to implement recruitment and retention tools that help mitigate those challenges. To uncover the strategies that hold the most promise for addressing law enforcement recruitment and retention in Washington State, the Association of Washington Cities (AWC) contracted graduate student analysts from the University of Washington's Daniel J. Evans School of Public Policy and Governance. This report, authored by the student analysts, provides recruitment and retention recommendations likely to be most feasible, effective, and relevant to Washington law enforcement. Recommendations were formed at the center of research, which included surveys and interviews with actual law enforcement practitioners. Research Findings: The research analysts interviewed recruitment and retention managers in Washington to better understand the perspectives and challenges that agencies face. Analysts also collected data on law enforcement agencies' organizational culture to set the context for their interviews and literature review. This list below highlights major findings which emerged from the study and informed the report's recommendations: 1. Industry Competition: Local law enforcement agencies, particularly smaller ones, often struggle to compete with one another for officers. However, the greatest threat to law enforcement recruitment (and retention) may be other industries, not peer agencies. Law enforcement agencies must develop recruitment strategies that help them compete with fields outside law enforcement. Washington State could see a 2 to 1 ratio o, f outgoing to incoming officers over the coming years. 2. Passive Planning is Unsustainable: Many departments are not actively planning for succession nor are many actively preparing strategies to address a high -volume of staffing loss. Departments also rely on staffing from similar applicant pools, which could exacerbate the deficit of officers. 3. Organizational Culture: Both an Asset and a Threat: The "family -like" culture of many law enforcement agencies is often leveraged to recruit and retain officers. But while a tight -knit culture can draw in new recruits, it can also push out much -needed, qualified but atypical candidates. Recommendations: This report outlines four major strategies to support law enforcement agencies as they navigate major recruitment and retention challenges:* 1. Actively pursue nontraditional applicants. 2. Invest in officers' professional growth. 3. Create an inclusive culture of engagement. 4. Implement evidence -based recruitment and retention strategies. *(See Chapter 5 for suggested tactics within each strategy.) Recommendations were bt med at the center of research, which included surveys and interviews with actual law enforcement practitioners. 2017 Washington NIBRS Submission Agencies Tukwila PD Offense Overview Offense Total # of Cleared Offense Percent Cleared 4,217 1,058 25.1 % King County Population: 19,660 Months Reported: 12 Group A Arrest Overview Arrest Total Adult Arrest Total Juvenile Arrest Total 1,074 889 185 Group A Offenses Reported 2016 Reported 2017 % of Change Crime Rate per 1,000 Total Arrests DV Offense Totals Murder 2 0 -100.0% 0.0 0 0 Manslaughter 0 0 0.0 0 0 Rape 26 19 -26.9% 1.0 2 2 Sodomy 3 0 -100.0% 0.0 0 0 Sexual Assault w/Object 0 0 0.0 0 0 Fondling 8 3 -62.5% 0.2 0 0 Aggravated Assault 58 71 22.4% 3.6 20 17 Simple Assault 394 383 -2.8% 19.5 192 186 Intimidation 153 79 -48.4% 4.0 29 8 Kidnapping 6 2 -66.7% 0.1 1 1 Incest 0 0 0.0 0 0 Statutory Rape 3 6 100.0% 0.3 0 0 Human Trafficking Offenses 0 0 0.0 0 0 Violation of No Contact/Protect. 0 0 0.0 0 0 Robbery 83 68 -18.1% 3.5 6 3 Burglary 207 193 -6.8% 9.8 10 1 Larceny -Theft Offenses 2,452 2,061 -15.9% 104.8 654 6 Motor Vehicle Theft 552 414 -25.0% 21.1 3 0 Arson 4 6 50.0% 0.3 0 0 Destruction of Property 927 590 -36.4% 30.0 35 0 Counterfeiting/Forgery 60 57 -5.0% 2.9 6 0 Fraud Offenses 79 66 -16.5% 3.4 2 0 Embezzlement 0 0 0.0 0 0 Extortion/Blackmail 0 1 0.1 0 0 Bribery 0 0 0.0 0 0 Stolen Property Offenses 85 58 -31.8% 3.0 46 0 Animal Cruelty 0 0 0.0 0 0 Drug/Narcotic Violations 111 84 -24.3% 4.3 44 0 Drug Equipment Violations 2 5 150.0% 0.3 8 0 Gambling Offenses 0 2 0.1 1 0 Pornography 2 1 -50.0% 0.1 0 0 Prostitution Offenses 4 12 200.0% 0.6 10 0 Weapon Law Violations 55 36 -34.5% 1.8 5 0 Grand Total 5,276 4,217 -20.1% 214.5 1,074 224 - WASPC 252 ('.rim, in Washington 2017 2017 Washington NIBRS Submission Agencies Tukwila PD Continued 2017 Group B Arrests Offense Adult Juvenile Bad Checks 0 0 Curfew/Vagrancy 0 0 Disorderly Conduct 2 0 Drunkenness 0 0 DUI 20 0 Family Offenses 0 0 Liquor Law Violations 2 0 Peeping Tom 0 0 Trespass 31 2 All Other Offenses 82 5 Total 137 7 Drug Offenses by Type 5% 2% 2% 43% ' Depressants Hallucinogens Stimulants Marijuana Heroin Other Drugs Domestic Violence Injuries Unconsciousness 1 1 Severe Lacerations I 1 Possible Internal Injuries 0 Other Major Injury 0 None _ 148 Minor Injury Loss of Teeth 0 Broken Bones 0 1159 13 Weapons Used in Crimes 36 2 1 5 20 0eac \cs Og• le ea'Q Office \ot �e\0JN. \Jc� c5 ‘a\` 0 '•.
