LAW Publications’ newest flyer titled “Cyberbullying” is now available for law enforcement departments. “Cyberbullying” will be the seventh new flyer the company has introduced since 2021, keeping with the company’s commitment to provide timely material addressing the topics faced by the over 600 law enforcement agencies throughout the country that partner with LAW Publications each year.

November holds far more than just Thanksgiving and eager holiday fans decorating for Christmas. There are several important dates to note throughout this month, all of which provide ample opportunity for your department to provide educational information to your community members across your social media platforms.

As the first full month of Fall and the beginning of the holiday season, October is an eventful month. In addition to Columbus Day (Weekend) and Halloween, there are a variety of law enforcement-related “holidays” and month-long observances, such as National First Responders Day (October 28) and National Crime Prevention Month.

Each month, we take a look at the top topics our law enforcement partners are requesting across the country to get an idea of what are the trending community engagement topics in the field right now. Here are the top 5 topics departments have requested so far in September.

Each month, we will recommend a selection of graphics from the LAW Digital library that are relevant to key events and holidays on the horizon, along with a free downloadable planning calendar to help you to plan and organize your social media posts for the month.

An easy way for officers to engage the community is by educating residents on issues that are affecting their families and neighborhoods. LAW Publications can partner with your agency to help make these no-cost and easily planned activities a way to connect with residents in a positive way while providing critical information at the same time.
