TMPA Programs

SAFVIC

TMPA also provides the new Sexual Assault and Family Violence Investigators Course (SAFVIC), which was created by TMPA through a grant funded by the Office of the Governor, Criminal Justice Division. TMPA hosts a 40-hour train-the-trainer course designed to provide future instructors on conducting the 3-day course. This is an exciting new program that will help all officers better deal with family violence and sexual assault cases.

Click It or Ticket

TMPA provides the management and evaluation support for the Texas Department of Transportation "Buckle Up, Texas" Occupant Protection initiative and the new "Click It or Ticket" campaign that emphasizes significant media and enforcement efforts to increase compliance with occupant protection laws. TMPA was selected for this program because of our unique ability to deliver high quality training of occupant protection programs to police officers all across Texas and maintain the highest standards for reporting and evaluation of the enforcement programs.

TxDOT Police Traffic Services

TMPA provides the liaison, management, and evaluation support for the Texas Department of Transportation Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) for all other STEP grant programs including intersection and speed. TMPA was selected for these programs because of our unique ability to deliver high-quality training, conduct professional research, and to resolve every day problems that police officers face trying to do their jobs.

DWI Reduction Program Through TxDOT and NHTSA

TMPA proposed and received funding through the Texas Department of Transportation and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to introduce an innovative software solution aimed at reducing officer down-time for DWI enforcement.  We recognized that state statutes and administration license revocations created enormous paperwork requirements on officers who make DWI arrests.  Our program was introduced as a simple wizard-based program that reduces DWI processing time as much as 50%, which puts officers on the streets in much less time and reduces the reluctance that some officers have expressed in the past to make DWI arrests because of the paperwork requirements.
