New federal funding is available to support de-escalation and crisis response training for law enforcement.

The FY26 Safer Outcomes: Enhancing Crisis Response Training for Law Enforcement program provides approximately $8 million to help law enforcement academies and state training commissions integrate de-escalation, communication, crisis response, and behavioral health concepts into officer training curriculum and statewide training standards.

MILO can support curriculum integration through repeatable, scenario-based training focused on communication, de-escalation, decision-making, and crisis response.
