Serving Populations

A population can be described as being a sub-group of people in society who have one or more common traits or characteristics. 

For this research assignment you must 

  • Identify and describe three positions in the criminal justice profession.
  • For each position you identified:

    • Identify the population it serves. 

    • Identify any multicultural or diversity issues which could impact the population that the position serves. Also recommend solutions to the issues. If there are no multicultural or diversity issues which could impact the population that position serves, state so and explain why not. 

Below are keyword search links about multicultural or diversity issues in law enforcement. 

  • cultural awareness in law enforcement
  • cultural sensitivity training in policing
  • cultural awareness and sensitivity "criminal justice"
  • diverse populations "law enforcement"

Note: Using quotation marks tell the database to search the words together. You can use them in any combination to see varying search results. 

These searches can be conducted on the Find page or in ProQuest Criminal Justice, linked below.
