Join us as we interview Deputy Greg Jones, Deputy Sheriff with the San Bernardino Sheriff's Department - Public Affairs Division.  We discuss topics such as the role of law enforcement in children's lives and how teachers can take advantage of law enforcement and school resource officers in shaping children's perceptions of police. Teachers have the power to encourage students to view police officers as something positive in their communities. Deputy Jones also discusses the process of mandated reporter child abuse reporting after the report has been made, and the role that the Department of Child and Family Services has (alongside law enforcement) in investigating reports. Deputy Jones gives listeners a wealth of information of resources and programs that are available to people and educators throughout the county.
