The Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) has partnered with KultureCity, making THP the second state law enforcement agency in the United States, and the first law enforcement agency in Tennessee, to have all road troopers trained to be sensory-inclusive.

KultureCity is a non-profit organization known for utilizing resources to transform and affect change in the community for individuals with sensory needs.

Every road trooper will receive a sensory bag that contains items to help lessen sensory overload and help troopers engage individuals with sensory needs.  Additionally, every road trooper will have a decal on their patrol vehicle to indicate to the public the trooper has sensory training.
