Law Enforcement Leaders: Keeping Our Streets Safe

On September 15, 2025, the FBI Newark Citizens Academy Alumni Association, in collaboration with the FBI Newark Division, proudly hosted a seminar titled “Keeping Our Streets Safe” at Hudson County Schools of Technology.

The event brought together top law enforcement officials who shared their inspiring career journeys and engaged in meaningful discussions on community safety and public engagement. The program highlighted how each leader is working to strengthen trust between law enforcement and the community—and how the public can play an active role in supporting these efforts.
