New York S01567 mandates annual diversity training for all police officers in the state.

New York S01567, known as the "law enforcement diversity and conflict mitigation training act," requires police officers to attend annual diversity training seminars. The bill amends the executive, general municipal, and town laws to establish a mandatory diversity training program for all current and new officers. The program includes training on diversity, inclusion, and conflict reduction, conducted by non-police professionals. Funding for these seminars is provided through grants to municipalities, sourced from seized asset funds and the state division of criminal justice services.
