November was a pivotal month for our organization and our country as a whole. On November 2, the Minneapolis measure to disband the police department failed!
Following the news of the failed measure, we discussed what’s next for Minneapolis and how this will affect other big cities across the country.
This month we announced our newest Advisory Committee member and partnership with Sheriff Richard Mack. We are thrilled to bring you his many years of knowledge and experience through our new page “Sheriff Mack’s Beat”, via monthly blogs and emails.
