[Music] all right let's talk about 30 by 30. this is a nationwide initiative to bring the amount of women police officers to 30 by the year 2030. we need to show that women are as capable as being police officers as men and in some instances they may be even better and i think it's important that we let our communities know that we always hire the most qualified people not just based on gender that's true but we definitely need more women in law enforcement and we should talk about why well for one women are less likely to use force typically women are smaller than men so we really rely on our de-escalation tactics to get people to cooperate with us also women who are victims of sex crimes and violence are often more comfortable talking to other women think about it half of our population is women so if we increase the amount of women in law enforcement it better reflects the communities we all live in speaking of community women can improve the relationships that we have with law enforcement because they reflect the community that they serve women bring a very unique and valuable set of skills to the profession i think it's very important in this profession that we foster community relations and help build community trust and don't forget about our excellent solving skills overall increasing the amount of women in a police agency allows the workforce to be more diverse effective and really creative and at the end of the day that's what's best for the community [Music] you
