Encounters with police can be unexpected – and stressful. In our upcoming "Know Your Rights" training, we’ll provide an overview of your civil rights when interacting with police in various settings. Our goal is that you'll leave feeling empowered to advocate for yourself in future situations, and to help others do the same. After the training, there will be an opportunity to take action for police accountability in Vermont.
