Information Sharing
The Internet is an invaluable resource for community safety,
because it provides public access to information on justice-
related issues within communities and throughout the United
States. Many law enforcement practitioners have embraced the
Internet and made information widely available, allowing access
to considerable justice-related data for their jurisdictions.
Currently, there are many websites available to the law
enforcement community that provide data and information of
interest to criminal justice practitioners. Many in the law
enforcement community, however, may not be aware of the
availability of these resources. Further, to search through the
vast amount of data available, law enforcement practitioners
have to spend considerable time accessing and conducting
searches on individual sites. Access to all of the databases
through a single access point would greatly benefit the law
enforcement community and allow for the most efficient search
functionality and data retrieval.
The creation of a law enforcement information sharing portal to
provide a single access point would benefit the entire criminal
justice community by allowing for more efficiency,
effectiveness, and cost savings. The ability of law enforcement

interface will deliver a more comprehensive view regarding the
search criteria.
The Dru Sjodin National Sex Offender Public Website
(NSOPW) is an example of the success that a single access
point for searching multiple resources can provide. Prior to the
NSOPW, many states had their own sex offender registry

Depression

Introduction
The brochures “Speak Up Depression “discusses the basic
information about depression. Some of the areas addressed in
the brochures include cases that can lead to depression, signs,
treatment of depression, people to consult when depressed, and
the importance of taking medicine when diagnosed with
depression. The article uniquely describes the actions of an
individual patient. The document was written through a
collaboration of distinguished groups, including the alliance of
depression and bipolar support, the American Mental Health
group, and the Association of American Psychiatric and

4. published in August 2013.

Summary of the brochure
Everyone can be at the risk of depression since depression
i9nvolves more feelings than the feeling of being sad. Some of
the common signs of depression are feeling overwhelmed,
agitated, or isolating oneself from others and having no interest
in given activities. Warning signs of depression, as discussed in
the article, include developing a sad feeling, having no interest
in activities one was interested in, minimized interest in sex,
isolation from others, developing thoughts of suicide or death,
and experiencing difficulty in making decisions. Additionally,
developing the feeling of being worthless or valueless is another
alarming sign of depression.
As discussed in the article, the general factors leading to
depression include historical family issues of depression,
underlying mental health conditions, encountering stress
generating life events, being traumatized, medication, and
deteriorating health conditions. When one has depression,
he/she needs to speak it out and initiate the program of seeking
help. One can talk to friends, colleges in the workplace, family
members, doctors, or people from worship places. Additionally,
one can visit a doctor who is in a position to determine what
happening, causes is, and help undergo the right treatment
procedure.
The treatment of depression may involve therapy that involves
talking, medication, being involved in support groups. As one
of the strategies used in treating depression, talk therapy is
effective since it helps the doctors learn more about the cause of
depression and develop approaches to manage it. Taking of
medicine is also another strategy in treating depression, and one
is advised to disclose all information about the medicines that
are taking in the treatment of depression. Additionally, different

5. medications are used to treat depression, and one should not
think that all depression conditions are uniformly treated. It is
advisable to seek help from family and friends who can help
meet the treatment plan's set goals. In reducing depression, the
individuals are advised to take enough sleep, speed more time
with people, avoid being alone, and strictly follow the daily
routine.
Evaluation.
The discussion raised by the article is uniquely developed;
many areas are well discussed while addressing the patients.
Generally, I liked the article's discussion and think that the
information given on factors leading to depressions, the
importance of the treatment process, and the healing process are
well developed. Some areas need improvement in the brochure.
First, the article did not discuss any item on the first aid
measures to identify a depressed person. Second, the article
failed to provide the medication's common side effects or even
highlight the most effective method of curing depression
without incurring the side effects. Third, the article did not
disclose information on how individuals can avoid depression.
Avoiding depression are significant areas that should be
discussed when creating awareness of depression.
The depression awareness developed in the brochure was
interesting since it has helped me acquire knowledge of
depression, treatment, and strategies to reduce depression. The
information presented is beneficial to me, and I will use the
knowledge acquired to create awareness for my peer counselors'
organization. The information discussed was presented in
simplified vocabularies that are simple to understand. I think
the nursing and health care research supported the research; the
information given includes knowledge of a nurse and doctors.
Matters concerning developing a treatment plan and healing
process of a depression patient involve nurses and doctors. The
article addresses individuals who are not affected by
depression; the information will benefit the non-affected.
Nevertheless, the information can benefit that having depression

6. but are yet to acknowledge. The information given will
significantly increase patient safety; for instance, if one reads
the article, he/she will be aware of the causes of depression and
how to be safe, thus minimizing cases of suicide.
Conclusion.
Depression is more than a feeling of sadness. People may
acquire depression from family issues, health condition, and
stress generating activities. When diagnosed with depression, it
is always to seek medical help and strictly adhere to the
treatment plan. Taking enough sleep and avoiding being isolated
are some of the measures in reducing depression. The brochure
is important to a person at risk since it helps one learn the signs
of depression, the start point of acquiring help in the journey of
depression. Additionally, it helps the person learn that
depression can be treated and the various treatment methods
available. The information discussed in the brochure helps one
develop insights into depression.
