What do you know about the program? @bonfacebeti, our lead at Kiganjo Police College, gives us some insight.

Since February 2019, GSN has partnered with the National Police Service (NPS) in designing, implementing and evaluating the pilot phase of #MuamkoMpya: Healing the Uniform – A Trauma-Informed Policing Initiative. The goal of the program is to complement NPS’ internal efforts in psycho-social wellbeing by providing officers at all levels with the knowledge, tools and frameworks to help themselves and, more importantly, amplify mutual peer-to-peer support in constructively addressing the routine trauma the police face in their personal and professional lives.

The official launch of the program comes on Tuesday, 10 March 2020 at the Kenya School of Monetary Studies, presided by The Inspector General of Police.

The launch of Muamko Mpya is a culmination of the GSN-NPS partnership in developing relevant curriculum material, conducting leadership trainings with select officers, and amplifying lessons and practices in trauma-informed policing. More significantly, the processes and products of these trauma-informed policing encounters were subjected to a rigorous validation process involving the key Services/Formations of NPS as well as key civil society partners.
