Step One:  Select an agency you are familiar with.  Provide community and agency demographics (you may
update but DO NOT COPY this from your previous course 21st Century Policing).  ( you can use the Fort Bend County Sheriffs Officer or the Houston Police Department)

Step Two: Describe the TWO biggest challenges facing the agency.  (These do NOT need to be tied to Uvlade-type incidents)
