Job Overview

Georgetown Law's Center for Innovations in Community Safety (CICS) is dedicated to a new vision of community safety, a vision that recognizes the need to take a broad approach to meeting community needs while reducing the harm of current approaches. Partnering with global law firm Sheppard Mullin, CICS has created the Active Bystandership for Law Enforcement (ABLE) Project to prepare officers to successfully intervene to prevent harm and to create a law enforcement culture that supports peer intervention.

Since its inception, ABLE has accepted more than 200 law enforcement agencies across the country into the program.

The Implementation and Instructional Specialist provides implementation and instructional support to ABLE's growing program - providing quality assurance and technical assistance to ABLE agencies to ensure compliance with ABLE standards and adherence to best practices.
