In this new role, Tiffany is available to provide legal advice, assist with legal research, help interpret policies and regulations, assist with contract reviews and negotiations, and provide support for other legal needs.

She is also able to provide trainings and other resources on legal-related topics like civil rights issues, reasonable force, confidentiality and mandatory reporting.
