Testimonial

Mr. Bove:

We want to thank you for attending our working group meeting last week in Lake Forest and addressing our law enforcement partners.

Your words of encouragement and the importance of being open to encountering individuals provided a valuable perspective that can positively influence interactions between law enforcement and the community.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and wisdom with our working group. Your dedication to the law enforcement profession is truly commendable.
