Group of Armenian police officers to stop in Lawrence during tour of Kansas
Topeka ? A group of Armenian police officers is touring Kansas law enforcement centers to meet with their American counterparts.
The visit is part of the Kansas National Guard’s State Partnership Program. It’s designed to assist Armenia in developing community policing.
The Armenians’ schedule includes visits to Lawrence, Kansas City, Wichita, Overland Park, Hutchinson and Park City from Wednesday through March 19.
Since 2003, Kansas officials have traveled to Armenia to establish partnerships with military and civilian leaders. The State Partnership Program is coordinated by the National Guard Bureau with each U.S. state matching with a foreign counterpart.
