Washington State Patrol Program Report 2030
This program report details the Washington State Patrol's commitment to enhancing safety and security for all communities, with a focus on the El Protector program. The program aims to reduce fatality and felony collisions, particularly among Hispanic/Latino drivers, through targeted community outreach, education, and robust media partnerships. Key strategic pillars include fostering positive relationships and trust between law enforcement and diverse communities, addressing risky driving behaviors such as impaired and distracted driving, promoting occupant restraint use, and recruiting a diverse workforce to support equity and inclusion. These efforts contribute to the state's broader 'Target Zero' Strategic Highway Safety Plan, which seeks to eliminate highway deaths by 2030.
