Hello,

Thank you for your quick response. My request is for " all briefs, memos, directives, PowerPoint slides, guidelines or other documents" concerning the LA CVE program. LA County's Sheriff's Department is a partner in the Interagency Coordination Group that is leading these efforts.

Just to clarify, are you saying there no responsive documents either produced by the LA County Sheriff's Department or sent to the LASD by other government agencies related to LA's CVE program? These include, but are not limited to, training manuals, earlier drafts of the framework you sent, internal department memos, presentations made during Interagency Coordination Group meetings, etc.

Thank you,

Waqas Mirza.

To Whom It May Concern:

Thanks for your help, and let me know if further clarification is needed.
