The three-day event, which begins on Wednesday, October 16th, is taking place at the Conference Center at Lake Placid, New York. Presenters will address issues including Building Community Trust, Trauma Informed interviews, Social media and Communications, and Resilience in Law Enforcement. Attendees will also hear from Distinguished Female Leaders within New York State in a leadership panel format which will allow attendees to learn the strategies that helped them attain such success.

NYWLE President Meredith Kaiser, from Glenville PD said, “While the training is wonderful, in my experience from the training conferences I have attended, one of the most valuable take-aways is always the connections made with other members and attendees. Women are still under-represented in law enforcement. We still face many of the same challenges that existed 15 years ago when the NYWLE was established. It is so important to talk to others and share our experiences. We can inspire each other by our successes and show each other what great things we can accomplish together.”

Each year are encouraged to bring a donation to the conference to benefit a local organization. This year’s community service organization we are supporting is the Regional Food Bank.

The agenda will include several dynamic criminal justice speakers in their fields of expertise. Anticipated topics include:

Community Trust Building, Trauma Informed Approach to Lockdown Drills, Extreme Risk Protection Orders, Trauma Informed Interviews, Social Media and Communications, Personal Finance, Leadership, Legal Updates, Warrior Versus Guardian Policing, Be the Change, and Resilience in Law Enforcement.

Registration fees are $225.00 for current 2024 NYWLE members and $300.00 for non-members. This fee includes all training, a Welcome Reception on Wednesday evening and a Lunch and Banquet Dinner on Thursday.
