Can you identify an impaired client?
Sam Houston State University’s (SHSU) Impaired Driving Initiatives Office is offering a new staff-development tool (a 6-hour training program) to assist you in doing just that!
The Drug Impairment Training For Texas Community Supervision and Parole Officers (DITTCSPO) is funded through a grant from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) which means the training is at no cost to you. This training will be held in Temple, Texas.
