through the Sheriff's Reserve Program. The implementation plan has three
phases: The first phase includes meeting with senior citizen commissions to
provide brochures and contacts for the senior citizen community. The Carver
County Sheriffs Office TRIAD program will help provide presenters and support
for events. The second phase includes proactive coordination of events and topics
for discussion through the Carver County Sheriff's Office TRIAD Program; the
third phase includes conducting large -scale events e.g. County -wide personal
safety, home security or traffic safety seminars. This year's theme is Senior
Safety— Fraud, Scams and Isolation.
