Agenda Analysis

Analysis

 

This resolution accepts an in-kind grant from the Nashville Police + Public Safety Alliance to the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department (“MNPD”) to provide customized leadership training for MNPD supervisors.

 

The grant would allow MNPD supervisors to receive leadership training through the ASPIRE Leadership Institute. The training will provide a comprehensive, customized program to develop supervisors during a three-year period and promote safety, compassion and trust in the MNPD.

 

While no money will be received by MNPD, the estimated value of the in-kind grant is $466,200. The Nashville Police + Public Safety Alliance received a grant from the Best Year Yet Foundation to cover half of the program’s cost. The grant period is from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2027.
