LGBTQ+ Law Enforcement Liaison Academy

DiversityDHS supports proactive community building relationships with our local law enforcement partners.

The role of liaison to the LGBTQ+ community within law enforcement has significantly grown in stature, number of agencies participating and nationwide geographical reach over the past five years since the Pulse Nightclub Orlando Florida Massacre.
