Social Media
Who is on social media?

Investigators and the courts use social media differently, they use it to get evidence for a crime that was committed, whether someone harasses another, stalking, or bullying. People are so free with posting everything that goes on in the world, they tend to incriminate themselves.

Active listening should be used because it shows positive interaction, especially with juveniles. When listening to it gains trust and respect, and gives a better understanding, It also eliminates misunderstandings that may
occur, with juveniles you want to be clear and concise.

Outreach coordinators in diverse cultural communities show that there is a positive presence; allow them to know that they are not forgotten about just because they are a diverse community. When communicating with a diverse community, you have to be aware of how to communicate with them, you do not want to come across as racial or inconsiderate.
