Last week Sheriff Steve Cox attended the 2019 Missouri Sheriffs’ Association (MSA) Summer Training Conference.

The Sheriffs’ Association provided most sheriffs with the following training:

10 Myths About Human Trafficking in Missouri

Missouri National Guard Drug Interdiction Program

MOVANS User Training

Leadership Development

Registered Apprenticeship in a Law Enforcement Environment

Responding to First Amendment Audits

Legal Updates

Disability Awareness

Preparing Youth as Future Criminal Justice Professionals

Racial Profiling/Investigating and Responding to Disparity Index Reports.

Business Meeting (3 plus hours) and Working luncheons.

Missouri Sheriffs are mandated by state law to obtain a minimum of 20 hours training each year from the MSA or be fined $2000 from the state. The MSA strives to provide outstanding training for our sheriffs.
