Value: Encourage diversity
Diversity within an organization is fundamental to its success, and once law enforcement is disconnected from the community, there is a ripple effect of distrust that can extend to every level of government. Diversity requires actions, not only words. I believe that I can be effective because of my determination, collaborative leadership style, progressive approach to law enforcement training, ability to build partnerships, and dedication to diversity allows me to be a highly effective. If elected Sheriff of Ramsey County, I will remain committed to innovative recruitment and to the encouragement of diversity within all its ranks.
