EPPS is proud to work with the South Carolina Department of Public Safety in the Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program (SCIP) and Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program.
As part of the SCIP grant, EPPS is implementing the ROCA Rewire4 training (Rewire 4 – Roca) to officers across South Carolina, introducing law enforcement to the basics of brain science, the impact of trauma on the brain, and how it affects thoughts and behaviors.
Through the JAG grant, EPPS is implementing the Avenues Virtual Reality training to officers across South Carolina. Participants engage in an immersive virtual reality training scenario followed by a plenary debrief. The virtual headsets have been pre-programmed with a scenario that explores how an officer may respond to a domestic violence call for service. Participants respond to a series of prompts which encourage them to think critically about how their communication can impact the response and reaction from the citizens involved. Trainings will be delivered across the state starting in June 2026.
