Your overall thoughts about both the FIT & PIC programs?
What, if any are the benefits of having programs like FIT & PIC in the community?
What are some important factors that should be included in developing programs like FIT & PIC (ex. composition of the team, hours worked, etc?)
What are some important characteristics/skill sets members of both the FIT & PIC program should possess?
Do you think, if a member(s) of the FIT or PIC team would have been called to be on the seen at the time of Daniel Prude’s initial contact with police, would that of made a difference, please explain why or why not?
