Attention: Women in Law Enforcement!

This year at our Annual Conference, we are excited to host a luncheon specifically for women law enforcement leaders. This will be an opportunity to network, build relationships, and have a round table discussion.  Chief Darla Huxel suggested this gathering and we thought it was a great idea.

If you are attending the conference, join us! More information to come. If you have not yet registered for the conference, make sure to do so now.
