Washington police lag on mandatory de-escalation training.
A state audit reveals only 16% of Washington’s police officers have completed the mandatory 40-hour de-escalation and mental health training required by law, with fewer than half expected to meet the 2028 deadline.
The training, enacted in 2018, aims to improve police-community relations but faces significant hurdles including high costs, lack of enforcement authority by the oversight commission, and poor data tracking.
Officials say the training reduces use of force, though the commission acknowledged it needs additional resources to fully address compliance issues.
