The Eureka Springs City Council heard from University of Arkansas representatives about alternative methods of policing on Monday, March 22.
Kim Stauss, chair of the universitys school of social work, presented information on community policing with her colleague Mark Plassmeyer. Stauss said the school of social work has been working with the Fayetteville Police Department to gather quantitative and qualitative data on the types of police work that social workers can help with.
Every community is different and we just wanted to be a resource for you if you want to implement something like that, Stauss said.
