WELCOME

• Going Beyond the Lights, or GBL, utilizes the experience of retired and former police officers to take “The Talk” to a more in depth conversation. The teachers of the program are not only retired and former officers; they are fathers, mothers, grandparents, aunts, uncles, godparents, neighbors and other loved ones. Our goal is simple, that is to educate willing participants on how to handle engagements with police.

 

• Most people will have their first interaction with the police on a traffic stop. What seems so simple to some, has led to some serious emotional trauma for both young and old. Something as simple as traffic infraction can lead to serious bodily injury or death. Knowing that, GBL will concentrate this lesson on dealing with traffic stops.

 

We want to thank you for allowing us to be part of “The Talk” you may have with your loved ones. We pray that the information provided will leave you with a better understanding of handling any police interactions.
