DETALLES: Oxnard Police Commander Eduardo M. Miranda has been accepted to participate in the Leadership in Crises Program at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, in Cambridge, MA.

Miranda arrived in Cambridge for an advanced 40-hour training program, which will run through Friday.

The Leadership in Crises (LIC) Program examines the skills leaders can build for working decisively in the highly concentrated time-frame of an emergency, while maintaining a focus on managing and motivating a team. The program looks at the skills necessary to communicate effectively with team members and the public, and how leaders can adapt techniques and strategies to fit the needs of a variety of extraordinary circumstances.

He has developed a strong foundation serving in a number of assignments with Oxnard Police, including Beat Coordinator, Detective sénior, and Patrol Sergeant. He has received various honors including Officer of the Year (2006) and a President’s Award for Community Service (2009) from El Concilio del Condado de Ventura County.

En 2012, Miranda was promoted to Commander, and currently serves as a Patrol and District Commander overseeing District 3 (West Village, Rosepark, La Colonia, Lemonwood, Diamond Bar and Cal-Gisler neighborhoods) as well as District 4 (South Oxnard), and oversees a number of collateral assignments. Miranda is a graduate of Rio Mesa High School in Oxnard.

INCIDENTE:	Oxnard Police Department Taking Back Prescription Drugs
FECHA / HORA:	Sábado, Abril 30, 2016 / 10 yo igual 2 pm

DETALLES:
En abril 30 desde 10 a.m. a 2 p.m. el Departamento de Policía de Oxnard y la Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will give the public its 11th opportunity in six years to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs. Bring your pills for disposal to the Oxnard Police Department at 251 S. “C” Street or CVS Pharmacy at 551 S. Calle Ventura., Oxnard (The DEA cannot accept liquids or needles or sharps, only pills or patches.) The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked.

Last September, Americans turned in 350 montones (encima 702,000 libras) de los medicamentos recetados en más de 5,000 sitios operados por la DEA y más de 3,800 of its state and local law enforcement partners. Total, in its 10 previous Take Back events, DEA and its partners have taken in over 5.5 million pounds—more than 2,750 tons—of pills.

Esta iniciativa aborda un tema vital para la seguridad pública y la salud pública. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse. Las tasas de abuso de medicamentos recetados en el U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs. Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet. en adición, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medicines—flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash—both pose potential safety and health hazards.
For more information about the disposal of prescription drugs or about the April 30 Take Back Day event, go to the DEA Diversion website or contact Commander Randy Latimer at 805-385-7619.
